Our trip to Gatlinburg,TN

Let me just say that we started our trip little late

We stretched our legs at the Visitors Center we recommend that you go in the store it has a lot of good resources books and many other things. BUT BEWARE !!!!!.... THIS GREATS YOU AT THE DOOR!!!!! LOL
Jeepers that's BIG!
Goofing around !
Then we hit the dusty trail!

The drive we were on is goes to Roaring Fork. It is a really pretty drive!Night time in Gatlinburg
Now after a that driving we are hungry!
On the way to food we had to push the " giant germ ball" as daddy calls it. It's tradition!
Now if you love your corn dawgs you will love this place! They're a foot-longers!
you can also get a regular hot dawgs . DO NOT GET YOUR DAWG ANYWHERE ELSE BUT HERE! THESE ARE THE BEST YOU CAN GET!
I don't even like hot dogs of any kind and I love these! Fanny Farkle's is the best!!!!
Yes the name is a little funny.
Daddy acting full!


Daddy seriously full!!!

Well it was a fun day but we were tired and ready to go home!Night traffic
And like Abby we were glad to be back in our...... yard?!

A new adventure!!!! South Fork, NP

We had the most beautiful drive on 127 .



Hey look Mayberry !
When we finally got there we made a quick stop at the visitors center, the last 10 min that they were open!
This was lunch.Blaze thinks lunch is a good idea!
We waited in the car for it to stop raining long enough for us to go look at the overlook.
It was well worth the wait!
But on the way back to the car it started to rain a bit!Then it started to rain so we grabbed what we could. Daddy found some nice big leaves....
It is a umbrella......
Now it's.....Rabbit ears!?
Ooooooooo!!! A natural Arch........ COOL!!!!!!

"Do ya'll want to go down and check it out?" says dad.,

LET'S GO!!!!!
Little Miss. Doolittle found a small box turtle Almost there!Woooowwww!!!!!!Jeepers thats big!!!!!Abby looks so small!
posing for the picture one more
As you can most likely tell it is raining harder now and we are getting very wet!Up, around and behind the arch we go!At the top of the staircase it is even more cool!I am beginning to wonder if north Tennessee has monsoons!
Now the path we had went down is a small running stream!!!!!
Somewhat like a really small waterfall!!
Then once we were back in the car driving out of the park, we encountered one more obstacle ... A tree had fallen over, due to the rain. So daddy moved the tree out of the road.
Is he Hercules or what?!
