For the past few years, Tucker's parents have taken the oldest of the 5 grandchildren on a trip to Gatlinburg/Dollywood. Last year, my father-in-law could not handle the roller coasters anymore because of his back, so they brought me on board this year to ride with Audrey and Hallie. So, on Tuesday afternoon, we set off to Pigeon Forge. The kids swam at the hotel that night and had a great time. On Wednesday morning, we went to Dollywood. Audrey, Hallie, and I rode all of the roller coasters and had a ball. I didn't know Hallie was such a dare-devil, but she hung in there with all of the coasters and loved them. Later that night, we drove on into Gatlinburg and had more swim time before bed. Then, the next morning after breakfast, we drove up to the Smokey Mountains and into Cade's Cove. It was so beautiful and we saw some wildlife....bears, turkeys, and deer. It was a quick, but very fun trip. We all had a great time!
