A Day Out

Today we went on a road trip to the Smokies. It's less than an hour's drive to Gatlinburg. This morning we headed out to the Smokies, stopping in for a pancake breakfast at the All-American pancake house. I had the Massachusetts pancakes (with cranberry sauce and whipped cream) and they were pretty good. Just a couple of doors down was the Elvis museum. We had to go to it. It was a lot of fun to see all this memorabilia of Elvis', such as some of his jumpsuits, his cars, and his jewelry.

Then we went to the park and appreciated the scenery on our way to Cherokee, NC. In Cherokee we went to a Cherokee craft shop. On our way home, we decided to take the interstate, which involved taking some scenic backroads to get to the interstate. It was a good day out.
