Gatlinburg
Next to the tourist spot of Pigeon Forge is combined with Gatlinburg. No big deal, almost like Gettsburg ,Pa Civil war history.
..Originally called White Oak Flats, a land developer, Radcliff Gatlin, wanted to make so many changes, the only way to get rid of the guy, was a bribe to name the town in his Honor...! Gatlin-burg.

Hungry Mother State Park is in VA and there is a nice-sized sign on I-81. It's a joke between my mother and I every time we pass it.
We also have the towns of Gassaway and Soddy Daisy.

Don't forget Frozen Head State Park. That one got us laughing on our last visit to TN.

I hope you can make it to the Muddy Pond General Store! It's nothing fancy, and it's certainly not very big, but it's always fun to visit. |
