Day in the Smoky Mountains

Today we spend some time just driving around the area and doing a little sightseeing in the area. We also stopped by the Colman outlet store and looked at all the camping gear and supplies. There was a lot to see. After that we took a drive through Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg , the traffic was a bad and we spent a lot of time in stop and go traffic. This was the road headed into Gatlinburg, and it was just as bad once we got in the Smoky Mountains. Guess everyone was out enjoying the good weather. All the lookouts where packed with cars and most of the trail heads had cars lined up on the road. But we still had a great time. The views from the lookouts where great, the ones that we could pull into that is.

We drove on through the Smoky Mountains to Cherokee NC and did more sightseeing . It was just as busy there also traffic backed up and moving slow. We spent a lot of the day sitting in traffic. This guy would just out in the middle of the street and direct traffic ( not sure what he was on ).

After spending the day driving around we stopped in to one of our favorite burger places ( Steak and Shake ) they have great burgers and shakes. Everyone knows that I can not past up a good milk shake.

After putting all that food away I was ready to head back to the camper and settle in for the night ( nap time ) and hang around the camp site. Not sure what we will be doing or where we are headed tomorrow but will updating as often as we can .
