It worked, this year we chose to go into the cold so we could stay ahead of the storm. We left Florida and headed north early this spring. We often hear of people staying in Florida until April but we left on the first day of March. Did it work or was it really a […]

This is our end-of-year review. Where did we go and what did we do in 2021? (The states we visited in 2021 are above this paragraph next to the date.) What amazing things did we see along the way? In 2021 we added eleven new states to our route map. Other than Louisana we spent

Treasure in the Smoky Mountains is easy to come by. It has always been this way. Today the treasures are different but just as amazing. The treasure we find here in the Smoky Mountains may be harder to spend than the timber, gold, or coal our ancestors took, but what they left behind is still

Smoky Mountain Vistas are amazing. We have had a wonderful visit. We spent the last twelve days camping off-grid in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Our stay in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park has made it easy to mix it up a little. At our current location, we get to enjoy both of

We have been knocking around Knoxville for almost three weeks and have a pretty good feel for spring in Knoxville. We really like it. Since tax day is around the corner, (we just filed yesterday) I am in a numbers mood — so in three weeks we have traveled 155 miles and been to five
I’m not sure where we crossed into Appalachia but we are surely here now. In fact, we may have been in Appalachia for a month or more depending on where the lines are drawn. It also depends on when and why the lines were drawn. As we crossed the Cumberland River Valley and started climbing

We can get in but we can’t leave (the campsite). Well, I guess we could get back out if we back up more than a quarter of a mile. Really it was more than just a quarter-mile of backing up. There is a long uphill section, two corners, and a large downhill section. Scars in
Can’t Leave, what now? Read More »
This week we visited more Tennessee waterfalls. All were as good (or better) than last week. The waterfalls are all very pretty and most of them are easy to access. I promised last week that we are still hunting for more Tennessee waterfalls. This is partly because I had a few more pictures than I

I had several titles for this post but Tennessee Waterfalls easily became the winner after looking at the pictures. The top photo was taken at Old Stone Fort State Park. We walked to this waterfall and the others in the park from our campsite. Old Stone Fort State Park was our second stop in Tennessee.
