Pigeon Forge, TN

We've spent the last nine days in Pigeon Forge, TN.  The first four days we had mostly rain, so we didn't get out much.  We did manage to drive into the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and up to Clingman's Dome.  The weather was so foggy we couldn't see much, but it was a great drive and what we did see was beautiful.

We took in a dinner show at the Majestic Theatre: Hazard County Hoe Down.   It was a  fun evening.

Our friends Lonnie & Cynthia drove over from Ringgold, GA to spend an evening with us.  We had a wonderful time catching up and enjoying a good meal at the Old Mill Restaurant, situated on the Pigeon Forge river with a great view of the water.

Once the weather cleared we spent a day at Dollywood.  We saw all the shows we could and rode a few rides.  Had a  great day.

Glo & T loved The Roaring Rampage Ride

Amazing how beautiful the Bald eagle is when you can see one up close.

T got soaking wet on this ride, but he loved it!

And Miss Lillian was so funny she had T up doing the chicken dance.

Our last day here we drove to another part of the Smoky Mountain National Park: Cades Cove.  It was much lower in elevation and the sun was shining, so we could to see a lot and go hiking.

The trail was wonderful, cool and with cascading water all along the trail.

Tomorrow we move on heading north.  Our plans are to spend a few days going through Kentucky while we wait for friends to join us and then head up to Michigan.  

I forgot to add a note about our last night at Pigeon Forge. The RV park residents have a pot luck every Thursday night and that night they had live entertainment. We got to enjoy lots of old classics such as Ronnie Milsap, Sanatra, Bing Crosby, Billy Ray Sierus, Jerry Lee Lewis, Jim Lowe and others all performed by Ronny Space, a local performer.  We had great fun!

Stay tuned for more adventures of the Rolling Hills, making memories.
