Hello Pigeon Forge, TN

Our adventure puts us in Pigeon Forge, TN this week. I am sitting here at my "desk" which is actually the dining room booth that I have taken over as my office space. There is a lovely view out the window of the Little Pigeon River. I've walked the dogs past the edge of the stream a few times. I can see our Husky’s wheels turning. I'm certain she will have devised a way to swim in that water before we leave Friday evening. She's a clever one.

We had our first learning experience yesterday. Specifically,  in understanding how the black and grey tanks work. If you choose to travel in an RV and don't want your moving casa to smell like an outhouse EVER...there are things that need to happen before and after use. In our case, we learned the lesson after the literal poop-pouri scent permeated our coach. All better now. Thanks to YouTube. 

After a long work day, my favorite thing to do is sit out by the fire and relax. If I were home, I’d have a list of things that needed to be done. This experience is forcing me to take a breath and enjoy the moment. This never would have happened in the old normal. So, here we are, making lemonade out of lemons! 

It’s not just work and campfires, this week we sampled local TN country cooking, found pottery at The Old Mill and took a site-seeing trip up to Anakeesta by way of a ski lift (minus the snow and the skis).

A cookie that looks like me!

Nick and I are taking the lift up to the treetop.

Finally, no stop is complete without Nick playing a course or two while I’m at the “office”. Here are some pics from his visit to Island Pointe Golf Club in Knoxville, TN.

Ciao.
