I haven't been to either place, but I found Gatlinburg, TN too Vegas-y to please.Banjo52https://www.blogger.com/profile/04342397136888422440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2883979841111173610.post-83643710111268988832011-02-19T20:20:50.307-05:002011-02-19T20:20:50.307-05:00This has that Ozark Winter Bones vibe happening; &...This has that Ozark Winter Bones vibe happening; "fear" being the lowest common denominator.

And I really did lose the hubcap, which I didn't realize till I was home, 500 miles later. <br /><br />I'm glad somebody else is taken with that lack of sun biz. It was years ago that I heard the comment, yet it's stayed with me as a detail, esp. when I drive thru that kind of country.Banjo52https://www.blogger.com/profile/04342397136888422440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2883979841111173610.post-66497532955578652312011-02-18T19:28:36.375-05:002011-02-18T19:28:36.375-05:00That last paragraph is almost a poem.

I stayed at a campground near Pittsburgh once that I don't think had EVER seen sun--picnic tables more moss than wood, every inch of concrete slick, dew and fog lingering all afternoon. On the other hand, in the "real" wilderness of western NC and eastern TN, leaves are dry underfoot mere hours after rain, and you can always find a warm, dry rock if you look carefully.Barbarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04038516078498541056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2883979841111173610.post-71332875621415044772011-02-17T20:00:38.350-05:002011-02-17T20:00:38.350-05:00It is nice there, but notice, Ken, the road is dry...It is nice there, but notice, Ken, the road is dry . . .
