Leaving Gatlinburg, TN

It is Palm Sunday and we just returned from church. It was a beautiful Palm Sunday service with a musical program "He's Alive." We really like this church here and hate to leave. We also love this area, too, which is quite funny because it is so congested with tourists and we don't usually go for that. I think it is the fact that the attractions are all family oriented with almost no "adult only" type of entertainment. Therefore the folks who are here are very much like-minded. Last night when trying to take our bike ride through the campground, there were so many kids riding their bikes and running around that it was like ants. It is so good to hear their laughter and play - especially after spending the winter with the majority of the folks being older than us!

Tomorrow we head up I-81. It is a 7 hour drive to Winchester, VA - our goal for the night if the weather holds out. There is the white four-letter word (S N O W) in the possible forecast for Tuesday so we want to try to make to Winchester in one day. We've done it many times in the past so it shouldn't be a problem. In Winchester, we need to get the tires rotated on the Lexus on Tuesday and then we will head on up to Hershey.

Have a great day and come back again.....
