Vacation

Two weeks ago we went to Gatlinburg, TN for vacation. We went with five other couples. We stayed at an eight bedroom cabin. We had a great vacation. Everyone chipped in with meals and doing the dishes. I think the main attraction at the cabin was pac man and galaga. There was a pool table, fooz ball, and air hockey lots of entertainment.
We did a lot of hiking. Ashley loved it. Of course she was being carried around in a back pack. We loved the mountains and being outdoors. I am sure we will try to do more hiking we really liked doing that. We did not really like downtown Gatlinburg, to commercializied. To many t-shirt shops and people trying to get you to buy a timeshare. We went to the Ripley's Aquarium it was okay a little pricey.



This is daddy being funny. Note the sign. They were at ground level so there was no danger.


In this picture we are at the highest point of the Smoky Mountains. Ashley was interested by my teeth at that moment. There was some snow and ice in areas that were shaded. It was weird since we were in shorts and t-shirts. The hike to this point was half a mile at a 12% incline. You had a sense of accomplishment when you were at the top. Going down was much easier.
