Spruce Flat Falls was NOT what we expected!! SMOKY MTN. excitement & WHERE to eat!

Day 3 & 4 in Tennessee continue w/ several hiking adventures! OH, WHAT A DAY that was! Memories of past "near death" experiences came bubbling up in me, but we escaped the treachorous journey with our lives and we learned A LOT! (that's what homeschoolers do....we find every experience a learning experience! 😜) You HAVE to come with us......I risked my LIFE for this video!!! 😂 Having said that.....we love Tennessee, the Smoky Mountains, and the Pigeon Forge Gatlinburg area so much.

Our adventure incudes our cabin in Sevierville (seriously one of the best parts of our trip), our trek up to Grotto Falls, Porter's Creek, Boss Hogg's BBQ (so good!), Spruce Flat Falls, the BEST gift shop on the Pigeon Forge strip, the Island, Paula Deen's, & the "gummy bear outlet!" 😂

I seriously can't wait to go back to my 2nd home! That's how I feel about the mountains now. I was meant to be a mountain mama! This may just be the beginning of a new era for this homeschool mom. There is SOOOOO much to do not just on the Pigeon Forge strip, but in the Smoky Mountain National park!
