Most of my vacation pictures are usually architectural or landscape. And animals... I get random animals. I didn't get a squirrel this time, and didn't upload my ducks. I always get ducks. Here are some of my favorites in no particular order than how they uploaded.  The infamous dock Jase tried to flood on Duck Dynasty. Union Station in Nashville Church in Nashville Ryman Auditorium in Nashville Antique Archeaology in Nashville Union Station clock tower Frist Museum Another church in Nashville Nashville's first public school Loved the colors of the Ferris Wheel in Pigeon Forge. This doesn't do justice. I think Ferris Wheels are just cool to take pictures of anyway. Chapel near our cabin. Near the aquarium in Gatlinburg Inside the aquarium... you kind of have to look close, don't you. From the Smoky Mountain National Park road between Gatlinburg, TN and Cherokee, NC. ELK!!! ...

Here are some of my favorite pictures from vacation. This first installment has people in each picture. If you know me, I take a lot of pictures of architecture, etc. Those will come tomorrow! A Paige selfie taken on a rooster on the carousel at Dollywood. Paige and Peyton taking pictures of themselves while I was driving down the road. The Gaylord Hotel  Outside the Grand Old Opry. Peyton shocked at all the food on her plate at The Old Mill in Pigeon Forge. Ready for the 5D ride. Riding the Great Smoky Mountain Wheel.

The trip continues... We join Paige already in progress... Wednesday: Tragen (Bear in German) Wakey, wakey!! Woke up about 8 o’clock and packed up the cabin and all our stuff. Our morning consists of Krispy Kreme’s Doughnuts, McDonald’s (since Paige doesn’t eat donuts – making it 5 days in a row for pancakes of some sort, I think) , the Mill painting shop, more fast and awesome Go-Karts where Peyton did a 360. Went on a hunt for Wear’s monuments, markers and graves (including a trip to the library and cemetery… think episode of Who Do You Think You Are) , and to top it all off, the largerest Alpine Slide in the U.S. would be the last thing in Pigeon Forge. A great way to finish!! (Twice!) Around Cade’s Cove we go. A beautiful view. We saw deer and a bear which was one of the highlights of the day. Nashville here we come!! Cracker Barrel stop which was sooo good!! Then to Comfort in to relax and chillax after such a busy few days!! This was the day we hit ...
