Plans for TN

Hi All,
I called Cindy Britt (owner of Tanasi Lodge) today just to touch bases. There is a Sam's Club in Knoxville (1 hr) and a Kroger in Wears Valley (where Tanasi is). According to the calendar, no one is in the Lodge the night before and the day after we check out, so we will be able to get in earlier (around 1-2 pm) and check out won't be hurried. Jon & Jenny are looking at activities. Please let us know what you are interested in doing.

Smoky Mtn. Natl Park - hiking, picniking
Golf
Dollywood
Gaitlinburg - small shops
Rafting

Everything sounds like fun, but time will limit what we can plan.
I would like to go rafting (the gentle one), think it would be a good family outing.
also I have found a nice easy hike in the mtns by a waterfall. We will have to plan the rafting, Dollywood, and golfing prior to getting there. Papa Lou and I are really up for anything. So, put in your preferences and maybe you have other suggestions. Let us know.

Saturday Night

Is anyone arriving in the area on Saturday? Just wondering if anyone found a good hotel or if anyone is planning on staying in Nashville and then drive over on Sunday.

Dollywood

If anyone wants to go to Dollywood, we can save 10 dollars a ticket by ordering the tickets 1 week in advance for groups of 15 or more?

I found the blog!!! It's been a long time since we used this, gang!
We are starting to think about Tennessee and plans. Papa Lou and I plan on driving, leaving LV on the 9th. EVERYONE...don't forget your family color tshirts. If you no longer have them or don't like your color....you can get more at Michael's (inexpensive). Love you all and can't wait to get together again. Grammy
