CANTERBURY WINE CABIN
What I did
THE GATLINBURG STRIP
Pigeon Forge, Tennessee
Saturday, December 17, 2011
FOR A NEAT CHRISTMAS PRESENT TO US
AND TO OURS... A TRIP TO GATLINBURG.
WE LEFT OUT ABOUT 7:30 AM. THE KIDS
LEFT OUT ABOUT 3:30 PM. WE MET THEM
AT THE FOOT OF THE MOUNTAIN AND LED
THE WAY TO THE CABIN. THE FIRST TIME
AT NIGHT WOULD BE HARD TO FIND.
THE CABIN, WE CHOSE WAS CALLED
"CANTERBURY WINE". IT WAS A
BEAUTIFUL TWO-LEVEL CABIN. IT WAS IN
A TWENTY-FOUR HOUR GATED-COMMUNITY.
YOU COULD NOT GET IN WITHOUT A PASS.
THE DRIVE UP TO THE CABIN WAS, ALSO,
VERY PRETTY. MOST OF THE CABINS
WERE DECORATED FOR CHRISTMAS SO
IT WAS A PRETTY DRIVE UP. THE CABIN,
TO ME, WAS BREATH TAKING. I COULD
NOT GET OVER HOW MANY LIGHTS THIS
CABIN HAD AND FANS, AS A MATTER
OF FACT. EVEN THE CEILINGS WERE
PRETTY. THESE PICTURES DO NOT DO IT
JUSTICE. THE ONLY DRAW BACK,
POSSIBLY, WOULD BE IF THE ROAD
WAS TO ICE OVER, I BELIEVE WE
COULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO
DRIVE IT. ALSO, THE HOT TUB WAS
NOT BIG ENOUGH FOR THE MEN OF
THS FAMILY! IT DEFINITIELY, FOR US,
WAS A ONE FAMILY AT A TIME,ONLY,
ADVENTURE... WHICH WAS NOT A
PROBLEM. WE ALL ENJOYED IT. WE,
ALSO, ENJOYED THE JACUZZI TUBS.
SON, CERTAINLY ENJOYED THE POOL
TABLE. ACTUALLY, THIS IS THE FIRST
TIME WE ALL SPENT SOME GOOD
QUALITY TIME JUST BEING TOGETHER
TALKING AND SNACKING. USUALLY.
WE ARE OFF GOING AND DOING. ONE
MORNING, HUBBY, MADE A GREAT
BREAKFAST WITH THE WORKS AND
ANOTHER MORNING AND OUR SON MADE
A GREAT PANCAKE (BLUEBERRY AND
CHOCOLATE CHIP) BREAKFAST.
SOOOOO GOOD!! THE SECOND NIGHT
WE WERE THERE OUR SON AND
DAUGHTER-IN-LAW DECIDED TO PLAY
A JOKE ON US; TRYING TO SCARE US
WHILE WE WERE IN THE HOT TUB...
THEY DID BUT BIG DADDY GOT SON
BACK THE NEXT DAY! HE GOT A
LITTLE WET! HUH????
THIS TIME WE DID NOT SEE ONE ANIMAL.
IT WAS, I SUPPOSE, ... HYBERNATION
TIME.
FATHER, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR A
WONDERFUL TIME!
