This is it everyone, we have finally reached the place on earth that Shano loves and worships and everything it produces........Tennessee!!!
Yesterday we drove through the Great Smoky Mountains which was amazing but challenging as we followed at least 50 million motorbikes. That always causes Shano much distress and induces road rage in various forms. I am surprised that Shano's face didn't cramp up and seize with all the snarling, yelling and stink eye looks he was throwing at everyone. Go on everyone, go visual! The scenery was awesome and we stopped at a tucked away place for a swim in the river - freezing but excellent. The kind of cold where you have to psych yourself up for about half an hour to get in and after inching your way into the water you eventually just fling yourself in. Chilly indeed.
Shano and Grace ventured into the Linville Caverns that hid deserters from the civil war. Shano thought is was incredible and raved about it for hours after where as Grace apparently went berserk when they switched the lights off to impress upon the tourists "how dark it actually was". And I mean berserk! There were tears and screaming and desperate clinging to Shano who was busy taking in the ambience I'm sure. Hayley, I think the reaction was similar to the time Graclene got locked in the loo at your place. Hysterical. Where was I, I hear you asking? Well, I wasn't dumb enough to go in there in the first place. Small confined spaces and I are not friends - in fact we have no relationship whatsoever and I intend to keep it that way. I read a book by the LARGE and OPEN picturesque river outside in the sun. I only heard the Gracelene screams. hee hee.
OK so we are off to find Shano a smaller brimmed hat today in the fabulousness of Tennessee somewhere. Photos to follow. xxxx
