Hey ya'll,
I just wanted to let everyone know that I DID drive to Pigeon Forge last Saturday. We had a wonderful time. It was beautiful, the scenery, and the weather. I-40 was a little curvy and I was ready for the break at the Tennesee welcome center but I did ok. I took 411 over to Pigeon Forge. It was a very pretty road. When I got to Pigeon Forge, I found out that the house that we were going to was 1.4 miles to the top of the mountain. I was terrified and even more scared to come down. Once I did it though I was fine. Comming down was not bad at all. I just kept it in low gear. Then I got really brave. I decided to come home to NC via the Great Smokey Mtn National park. It was not a bad drive at all. In fact I think I prefer that way over the switchbacks on I-40 and the big trucks. I know it is longer but prettier and an easier drive. I feel like such a fool now having done it once and it was so easy. I am ready to go back again. It just goes to show how fear can paralyze you. And yes, it is also a control issue with me!!!!
