July 9, 2022 Sevierville TN to Antioch TN

Image
The three of us left our beautiful campsite behind to head to our next destination of Antioch, TN and Four Corners RV Resort. The drive was so beautiful.  I feel like I keep repeating myself.  Let me tell y'all how pretty our country is.  Some of the cities we drove through were Knoxville, Kingston, Fairfield and Gordonsville. Again we saw water towers, factory towers, rivers and endless lush, green beautiful countryside. When we arrived at our camp, Abby rode her bike while we set up the trailer.  When we were done she and I rode bikes around the campground for a bit.   We were attending the Grand Ole Opry concert tonight and eating at Paula Deen's Family Kitchen.  PD's is a must for lunch or dinner when you are in Nashville.  The restaurant has only been open since October 2020.  The meals are served family style.  We chose Southern Fried Chicken, Chicken and Dumplings, creamed potatoes, creamed corn, tomato and cucumber salad and cole slaw with banana pudding for dessert

 Today we drove around Knoxville driving by five houses we had been watching on Zillow.  We crossed off four of them, liked the last one that we saw - it is now pending a sale.  Houses are going fast here.  Lots of new residential and commercial building in all of Tennessee. We took the scenic route to lunch as the navigation system said we would save 3 minutes.  Never again will we save 3 minutes to drive on the windy roads!   Abby and I do not do well on windy roads. The scenery is beautiful though.  For lunch we ate at Cooke Dough Monster Burgers and Shakes.  I had a grilled cheese pepperoni sandwich as you will see in the picture. Abby had cheese curds that were too spicy for all of us.  All of their cookies had been baked and sold.  You could buy balls of cookie dough to eat but you had to buy a minimum of four.  We passed on that and Abby had vanilla ice cream on a waffle cone.  I know, I know, I passed on cookie dough!!! We had rain on and off all day.  After lunch we stopped at

Yes I have skipped about ten days.  I will post those missing days for sure.  We had a lot of fun in Ohio.  We arrived in Sevierville yesterday and are in a fabulous campground.  Buddy Bear  RV Park in the Smokie mountains.  We have a pull through site will full hook ups, there is a brand new pool, kayaking and tubing on the Little Pigeon River, paved streets with lighting. Today we had planned on going to Dollywood.  We woke up to pouring rain with more rain to come.  We decided to go anyway as we had already bought tickets.  What's rain when it is 90 degrees outside.  We had a great time!  Such a fabulous park, fifteen minutes from the campground, easy parking, tram to the park and no crowds!!!  I can't even say we had to wait in any lines because they moved right on through. Abigail, our granddaughter, is now travelling with us.  Her two favorite rides were Daredevil Falls and the Dragonflier rollercoaster.  We all would recommend this park :) Hope you are enjoying our blog
