A Nice Vacation
As some of you know, Becky and I have been in Gatlinburg since Sunday. We haven’t really done a whole lot – her mom was with us for Sunday and Monday. We went to the Dixie Stampede on Sunday night, then on Monday we walked around downtown Gatlinburg for a few hours. In the snow.
Yes, snow. I’ve been glad to see it honestly, although I’m over it now. It started snowing a little bit on Sunday night, but snowed fairly hard all day on Monday and part of Tuesday morning. In all, we probably had about 5 inches – at least that’s what I eye-balled on the handrail outside the front window of our room.
I’m usually one to say that I’m good with one or two good snows in the Winter, then I’m ready for Spring. Well, I’ve had my good snow – I’m ready for Spring. I’m ready to do a garden and mow the yard. I’m ready to cut down some more trees for next Winter’s firewood. I’m ready to be outside without freezing.
The snow is still beautiful though. Here’s a pic to prove it – stay tuned, I’ll try to add more pics to this gallery later on rather than keeping it at just the one.
