Smoky Mountain vacation starts tomorrow!

[SvilleKid]

Every other year or so, we do a family Christmas in Gatlinburg. Usually the first week of January. Almost all places still open, decorations still up, and all the church youth group traffic between Christmas and New Years are gone. We have walked down the middle of main street with not traffic in sight before. We rent a cabin in the hills behind Dollywood. Only disadvantage is road to Clingman's Dome closes months before. And if enough snow, many park roads are closed. Only had closed roads one year, so not big worry. I love the GSM in all seasons! While you are there, stop by the Smoky Mtn Brewery (Gatlinburg, Servilleville and Knoxville area). Beers brewed on site, and they have a killer sampler taste order that gives you 8-10 beers in 6.5 oz glasses, for less than $10!!!!! And food is excellent also!
