Iceberg? Rosenberg? Gatlinburg.

Just got back last night from Gatlinburg TN. Awesome time...went for Joe N's 30th birthday. Awesome cabin, awesome hiking, awesome food...did i say it was awesome? Leah had a great time there. drive was only about 4 hours which wasnt too bad. Except the morons in charge of NC roadways are complete idiots!!! they closed down I77 last night about 9 o clock...isnt roadwork supposed to happen at like 2am when there are barely any cars on? Not here. and there was this one &@#$# semi that decided to be a complete @#&@# and drive in both lanes all the way up until the merge just so smaller faster cars couldnt pass and thereby causing more traffic jams cuz two lanes backed up. I never wanted car missiles so bad in my life!! i couldnt believe it. so next chance i got with an on ramp i passed him, but seriously what a @#^@&. Angelle was super happy with the whole situation.

But besides that Gatlinburg was pretty sweet. Oh, and the gators beating Tennessee was also ridic sweet. Gary and Maria had a question for people with "T" shirts on..."Is the T for Tim? or Tebow?" needless to say, they loved the question.

Leah was awesome on our hike. it was 1.2 mile hike to Grotto Falls and i had leah in the hiking backpack, and angelle had erin in her wrap. it was really a great hike. the girls did awesome, and me and leah had fun splashing around in the water at the bottom of the falls.

WE also played a bunch of poker. I played horribly and joe someone got lucky in every hand he played in. I of course folded a 10-J which would have scored only a full house if i had played it.

The cabin itself was awesome. 5 bedrooms, a gameroom at the bottom with pool table, big screen tv, galaga/pacman, poker table, air hockey, foosball, and each story had a deck in the back. each room had a bathroom and there was a full kitchen. really great vacation place. Gatlinburg Falls Resort if you want to visit it yourself.

ERin was fussy every night from about 8-10 or so. but other than that she was great.

White water rafting was closed cuz of lack of water, but maybe next time.

Alright, time to head to preschool. Lates

you realize a five bedroom house doesn't really equal "cabin"...

It sounds like you had a great time. I think Joe would have started shooting too in that situation. I'm afraid that Zach is going to learn some choice phrases from driving with Joe.
