      That resort is probably the place where my family had the best vacation in years.. Just love the area! The kids still talk about that trip...

        Marti,

        If you're still in the area, here's a Knoxville event for tonight that looks like it will be fun.

        Blount Mansion-Events

        If you're still going to be around next Friday, come out for BBQ & Music.

          Wyndham Resort - Great Smokies Lodge - Tennessee


          First Week - October 15-22 - Suite 6213


          Check in was easy. Asked for a top floor but was given our assigned
          unit. Nice location with a parking view and view of the Pigeon River.
          Everything was perfect until a family moved in over top of us last night.

          We had plan to stay in the same unit for 2 weeks
          But was able to switch units for our second week.
          Same building just on the Top Floor...

          By the way the road from I-40 to and from d/t Gatlinburg
          has been so backed up today, that we decided to stay in.
          I fixed a fresh salad, roast pork, hot rolls with melted butter &
          for dessert Kroger`s Lemon Meringue Pie & Pineapple Sherbert.

          If you are in the area and want to stop by
          There are two lounges here in our building.
          Call the front desk and ask for our new number.

            Traffic is likely much worse than usual this weekend because UT plays Alabama. Lots of Alabama fans will be your neighbors. Between that and the leaf peepers, I'll be heading in another direction tomorrow.

            Enjoy your stay!

              Marti, sorry I couldn't make it over to meet you while you are here. My handicapped brother who lives with me broke his leg and we are home bound for a while. Hope your stay is great. The mountains should be just beautiful right now. The one behind my house sure is but I so miss seeing the Smokies in their full colorful beauty.

                Get Together in the Smokies


                October 24, 2010


                The October weather was great for our outdoor get together
                Temperature in the 70s with a perfect fall foliage background.

                Took the back road out of The Wyndham Vacation Resort
                Great Smokies Lodge here in Sevierville Tennessee 37876.

                Passed by the Sevier County Fairgrounds
                Left on Main Street to light by Walgreens
                East on Dolly Parton Parkway Route 411
                To Post Office (Mailed Eight Post Cards)
                Right on Pittman Center Road Route 416
                Continue to Birds Creek Road Route 454
                Right on Glades Rd.

                Be sure to stop and look at the beautiful
                Little Log Wedding Chapel and Grounds..

                Arts and Craft Community
                Nice place to get out to shop or walk around.

                Stopped at McDonalds

                Turn Right on E Parkway Route 321
                Continue until you get to Blue Green
                Mountain Loft just outside Gatlinburg.

                As we drove beneath the canopy of oak and pine trees up the winding
                country road to Mountain Loft, we took photos of the cute little wooden
                bears that greeted us on our way up to the gazebo for our get together.

                Afterwards, went to Gatlinburg
                and came back the same route.

                    Wednesday


                    This afternoon we went to Three Bears General Store formerly
                    Three Bears Gift Shop 2861 Parkway Pigeon Forge, TN 37863.

                    Really nice old fashion general store,
                    friendly staff, great customer service
                    Must see!

                    Afterwards, we went to Fuddruckers on Collier Drive and ordered
                    their World Famous Hamburgers & Fixings to bring back for dinner.
                    Great as always!

                        Did you go up in the Sunsphere? We missed it when it was open during the World's Fair, but they finally reopened the visitor's deck. We went up about a year ago. Nice view.

                          Happy Halloween

                          Enjoyed two beautiful fall weeks in:
                          Sevierville-Pigeon Forge-Gatlingburg
                          The fall decorations were colorful...
                          Great to be home...

                            Mountain Loft ties with The Fountain in Orlando for my middle daughter's favorite BG resort - it'd be The Fountains all the way, except for those bears.

                            I really liked Mountain Loft the one time we went, but I was sick and so didn't get to do much there.
