Just got back from a drive up around the GATLINBERG ski resort road. Went and rode up around the mountain to take a look at nighttime. Pics didn't come out, but it is really something to see at night.

A friend of mine moved up to GORDONSVILLE(about 45 miles east of NASHVILLE on I-40) in JANUARY and the general is off for spring break this week. So I was told we were going, so we went. Figured it would be a change in scenery that I needed from FLORIDA. It's definately beautiful countryside, but I still love FLORIDA for fishing. I don't think I could give up being able to catch these beautys at will whenever.

Beautiful pics! Thanks for taking the time to share 'em. Thats all new territory to me. I never been east of Las Vegas. I think I intended to go further east but was too broke and hung over after a couple of nights in Sin City to do anything other crawl back to my home in California with my tail between my legs.

Really Tuna, you should make a trip east.
Just come during the summer, cause like my kids describe it in winter "DIRT".

I have driven cross country many times,
and I think everyone should do it at least once.

There is nothing like driving up a hill and then all of a sudden realizing there is nothing on either side of you
because your driving on top of a bute.

Here's a pic of me at the look out from that bute,
I believe it is Black canyon, just north of Phoenix:

New England in the fall is one of my goals. Maybe eat a lobster in Maine too.
