My Spring Break at school allowed Drew and I to do something we had not done since Alyssa was born, five years ago, take a marvelous vacation together! We chose Gatlinburg, TN due to the proximity of the kid sitters and because Drew had never been there before. It turned out to be just the right mix of nature and city life. Look out, Eya and Poppy, we might make this an annual thing!
Our cabin, "Love Nest" included an outdoor hot tub and an indoor jacuzzi, both were enjoyed thoroughly along with the gorgeous Smoky Mountain view.
Morning view, nice back porch with rockers.
A Baptist Church in Cades Cove. There was a Baptist church on every corner in Gatlinburg. One of Drew's coworkers who had suggested we see Cades Cove said we would be "so far in the back woods that even the Presbyterians would be handling snakes!" We did not see any Presbyterian churches. We did see a funny t-shirt that read: "Paddle faster, I hear banjo music!" We really were in the back woods!
I liked the fences/gates.
A cool old barn, still don't know what the square holes are for?
The red bud was blooming in full force, made for many nice shots.
Photographer extraordinaire (giggle) !
Downtown Gatlinburg - I was attracted to the extra large chocolate bunnies - they were plastic! We made a secret wish and threw our penny in the fountain behind the basket!
Riding the Sky Lift, too cool in our shades - PEACE!
The tulips were also festive!
Ripley's Moving Theater - moving seats and so much fun I lost my voice screaming!
