Trip through the Smokys

Thanks Eagle, things keep getting better.

Wanted to get away for the weekend from the farm so we just took off toward Knoxville in the Mazda.
Oh, and ORANGE IS COMING



Knoxville was cool but I remembered Gatlinburg from when I was a teenager so we headed in that direction. Pam was blown away with all the resorts and rides on the way there and now she thinks much better of Tennessee.  We just kept driving over the Smoky mountains yesterday and ended up staying in a cheap place in Cherokee. I dreamed last night that it was providence that led me here and so I woke up and went to get a to-go breakfast from Granny's that Pam and I ate for 8 bucks.  

All the lights "coincidently" had been set up and this was the first night of the Christmas Drama at the Cherokee Nation. The motel was called the Drama Inn across the street from the festivities. We met one Santa last night and then this morning another was staying next door.

I found out that Santa "would not shut up!!!!!!!!!!!"   

So we are having a great time and this pic was taken near the top of the Smoky Mountains Yesterday.
