Monday's fun

Monday we didn't do much. It was the first day we spent the whole day at the campground. The kids were playing in the creek behind our campsite when we realized there was a frog sitting on the rock the whole time. I'm not even sure if he noticed us either. Bubby got to do the thing he has asked to do since we got here. The water slide! Yes, the campground has its own waterside. 500 feet. He went down one time and that was it. He kept saying "I go to the pool now". Poor thing. The pool is really nice and clean! The girls spent a lot of time laying out. I think it's starting to get to them having their belly's pierced. Staying out of water for two weeks is hard. Esp when you are on vacation. We also drove thru/around the great Smokey National Park. The sights were unbelievable. I'm not sure what is on tap today. We have been talking about going to Pigeon Forge today so we will see. Enjoy the pictures!

Sunday's adventures

Setting up on Saturday

This is the house that's behind us. I thought it was the cutest thing

Weird place for fireworks

On the road to downtown Gaitlinburg

Almost there

I couldn't imagine what the view is like here

If you look closely you can see several houses on the hill.

Getting closer to the "city"

The weirdest intersection 

We didn't go down this road yet. 

Look at the huge houses on the hill!

Bubby not looking at the camera

Ripley's Aquarium

Bubby was so happy to see this Duck

He thought we came all this way just to see Ducks

Mama and her babies

The first h.house Kev and the girls went to

The bathrooms were just as scary as the house

Stores that opened up to this courtyard 

If you look closely it looks like cracks in the building

Forrest Gump's restaurant and gift shop

The 2nd H.house they went into

I thought this was the coolest Burger King

Yes the sign says "Do not touch" I couldn't keep him from touching it.

The car was just his size no wonder he thought it was his

Another little shopping area off the main street

I thought they were the neatest things

Tornado's dream come true...meeting the blue M&M

Oh wait maybe it was Foo Foo's dream come true

Bubba Gump's shrimp

She looks a little too happy hugging that Shrimp

The guys dream come true

Mini golf on the hill

Travel Day part 2

I thought I would post some of the pictures we took on the road. Keep in mind most of these were taken while riding in a car so they are not the best quality. Enjoy!

This is where we spent the first night. I have never stayed at an interstate high before. LOL.

Our front view

Our campers all lined up

I just thought this was so beautiful!

Open road

Are we there yet?

I was never so happy to cross a state line before

I could never get enough of these mountains!

Wifi is not at our campsite so I will be a little slow blogging and uploading pictures.

On the road again......

Yesterday afternoon we left our little town for our adventure. Where,you ask? Good ole rocky top. Yep Tennessee. We have always wanted to go. When we bought our camper years ago it was to travel across the United States. A few months after we bought it Hubby was diagnosed with cancer. The next three years were filled with cancer treatments and meant we could only travel locally. This year we decided with two other families we were driving to see the Smokey mountains. Yesterday we were on the road for 7 hours. We drove until everyone was tired of driving. I'm finishing my cup of coffee and on the road we go again.

See ya in Tennessee..........
