a few gatlinburg pics...

Good evening. I was wondering what you wenches were up to. I have been sitting on the back porch with hubby. The nights for sitting outside are numbered here in KY.

Sounds nice. We still have skeeters here--not pleasant outside.

Wow, those are gorgeous! How long of a drive is that for you?

 

[dbuck]

wow great!!!! super shots!!!
I think we are doing our family reunion there in 2008 so I will have to wait until then....

The last time I went was in October, YIKES, it makes Destin traffic look like Mayberry. I wonder if it would be better going during the week and leaving before the weekend?

it takes about 6 hours, depending on the traffic on 75.

Love your pictures, Audie!!! They are all so peaceful looking!
I enjoy the mountains....I have been meaning to go to Ashville and see the Biltmore Estates...I would love to go during November...but it is very crowded then....

Those are beautiful photos, Audie. I've always been scared off of Gatlinburg because it looks so ticky-tacky but maybe that's only the town itself, because that scenery would take your breath away!~ Did you stay in a cabin or a hotel?

 

[audie]

do what we do mermy - rent a cabin in the hills and avoid downtown at all costs - ticky tacky is a good way to describe it. i'm not into shopping or anything so we spend most of our time driving in the mountains and the blue ridge parkway.

No Merm, I went once near the holidays and it was actually quite nice. Stayed in a wonderful cabin. First time I had ever stayed in a cabin. It's close by for us in the south and yet another new experience. And the little shopping street was cool too. I'd definitely do it again.
