Who are we kidding?

No way I'm ever going to go back through the whole vacation and recap, espcially with school starting back up in a week or so. Look. We drove through the Smokies, we walked to some waterfalls, the girls played in real mountain streams. We walked through Gatlinburg and admired the sheer audacity of American tackiness. We sweated a lot. We drove to Chattanooga, were again frustrated by Tennessee's closed rest stops. The second cabin was smaller and dirtier. We went to Lake Winnepesaukah and sweated some more. Tooks got on a flume. We went to the Creative Discovery Museum and found yet another children's museum that blows Cincinnati's away. (seriously, get it in gear, locals) We got a small sprinkling of Civil War history, we admired the Tennessee Aquarium, we ate at Bea's Restaurant. When the videos are made maybe we'll explain more, but for now, this will have to do.

All is well, but the elephant in the room is the start of school. I apologize again for the lack of posts, but as soon as the new power cord comes, it'll be a lot easier to get back on track.

Thanks to everyone for your attention...hope we have some interesting things to say in the near future.
