 On
the way here, the two RV Gypsies blew a tire on their big RV. The noise
was a very loud bang, and it surprised the two RV Gypsies. It was the
outside tire on the back, driver's side of the RV. The inside tire was
fine, so that surviving tire allowed the two RV Gypsies to drive two
more hours to the campground. The roads were just not suitable for the
two RV Gypsies to pull over anyplace, plus it was a Sunday and all repair
places were closed anyway. So on Monday, Lee Duquette drove the RV in
for a new tire in Sevierville, which is not far from Pigeon Forge. Cost
was $700. It will soon be time to replace the other 5 tires on the RV,
but it is just too costly to replace them all at this time.

This was a small but nice campground with
only two roads (paved) which circled around so each road was one-way.
All sites were back-in sites. TV cable had only a few stations, and
most did not come in very well. It is advertised as the "Sweetest
Lil' Campground in the Smokies". Sites were gravel. Wi-Fi
available at sites but not for streaming Netflex, Hulu and Games. Quiet
time was 11 P.M. to 7 A.M. No washing RVs or cars. Most standard campground
rules applied, but this park requires everyone to sign a special waiver
regarding damage as the park is privately owned. |

Below: This bronze statue at 125 Court
Avenue in Sevierville, Tennessee portrays Dolly Parton as a young woman,
perched on a rock while casually strumming her guitar. Sculptor Jim
Gray chose to show the star beaming her signature smile, likely dreaming
about the renown that she later brought to her hometown. The statue
debuted in 1987, shortly after Dollywood opened nearby. |
