What a fun state to visit! It's good to see something else besides Chicago. My trip started in Memphis and ended in the Smoky Mountains. Now on with the awesome pics and views, enjoy!...

Heading towards TN...

That's just some of the many photo's we took out there and all I can say is that TN people are very friendly and polite. We definitely will be going back again for another exciting road trip. See ya'll next year...

 

You should go back during the Grand Fall Rod Run, its like an entire different place.

 

glad you had a good time , wish we would have known you were planning a rip we could have gotten together while you were in town. The zoo is a nice place to go and looks like yall had a good time. I have met the owner of the TCM xB he has a matching trailer, that he halls his harley on if it is the same guy.


Is that the cabin yall stayed in?

 

Glad to see you had a good trip. I guess we don't appreciate the scenery since we see it everyday. The you hit some nice areas.

 

So basically you only did memphis and gatlinburg. All the good stuff was in between away from all the tourist traps. Did you hit the civil war battlefields at exit 108? What about Opryland in nashville or the parthenon?
Sounds like you missed a bunch of stuff.

 

I had started a topic about going to TN and what was there to do while I was on vacation there. No one really answered and gave me anything worth seeing. I was supposed to go to Graceland but didn't go so I figure there has got to be something else to do there in Memphis. The main part of going to TN was the Smokies, which was well worth the 7 or 8 hours from Memphis. Overall, I enjoyed it and will be going back again...hopefully next year...

 

shoot sorry i missed your thread. Some of us in memphis would have come out and met up with ya. Looks like y'all had a fun trip. You took some good pics :O)
