We have had a tradition every fall, right around our anniversary, to go to Gatlinburg, TN. It is such a beautiful place with lots of beautiful nature sights and shopping for good things and typical tourist things.
This year I had a conference to go to. So, we made this our annual trip. Our anniversary was October 14th, the last day of the conference. The conference finished at noon. We were going to hang out in Gatlinburg for a while before coming on. But it was pouring down rain! So, we came home and had a nice quiet evening. We had a wonderful dinner the night before at Cherokee Grill and Gatlinburg (highly recommend it). So our anniversary dinner was actually the night before. Our dinner the night of our anniversary was tomato soup. Nothing wrong with that on a cold rainy night!
While I was in my conference, Patrick was able to get out and explore some areas of Gatlinburg that he had not been to. He took some beautiful pictures. I want to go back when the weather cooperates and perhaps take a short hike. The Great Smoky Mountain National Park is full of wonderful hiking trails and places to enjoy the great creation that our heavenly father has given us to enjoy!
Thanks, Patrick, for a wonderful three years! Time flies when we are having fun! I am looking forward to many more years with you!
