Yes, we took a two week vacation to the Smoky Mountains. I am from Albuquerque, NM and I always enjoyed being near mountains. I used them as a guide to always know direction. a place to escape to, to enjoy when I needed to smell fresh air and my family just made so many good memories in the mountains. As a grown woman, I find myself escaping when I feel depressed or need to escape to a place of serenity. I always go back to the mountains, a log cabin, the smell of fire burning, the crackling of the logs in the fire pit, the warmth of a mug of coffee in my hands and the aroma of coffee, fire and fresh air mixing together. It’s a place we are considering retiring in. I feel what better way to retire then in a place where I look to for peace and serenity. My husband is in the Air Force and we have lived in a lot of places. Tennessee though, just does something for my soul!
