Hi All :thumb:
Hope everyone's ok and you all had a great weekend at Peterborough, weather must be getting better by now.
We left the Smokey Mountains last Friday after extending our stay, what a wonderfull place we fell in love with it. I managed to get Jan to go hiking in the mountains twice and horse riding once. When we were hiking I almost stepped on a rattlesnake, I was only 2 or 3 inches away, if it had'nt moved at me to warn me I think I'd have been a gonner. Needless to say my lovelly wife thought it was hilarious and was my punishment for taking her hiking. She did enjoy the horse riding though as when we were in the forest we came face to face with a huge black bear. The horses stopped in their tracks and did'nt move but the bear just ignored us and carried on foraging and then ambled off into the woods, it was amazing.
We're currently in Nashville Musuc City staying about 2 miles from downtown & about 5 minutes from The Grand Ole Opry. Went downtown the other day and had a drink in the bars, everyones got entertainment it was great even had the bar girls dancing on the bar and tables, had to tie Jan down as you can imagine. Saturday night we went to the Grand Ole Opry what a fun night its not like any other show we've been to. It's more like a group of old friends getting together its so informal strange at first but really good fun. Charlie Daniels was the star of the show he enjoyed it so much they could'nt get him off the stage.
Off to Memphis in the morning, heard a rumour on the campground grapevine that Elvis is alive and well, so we're off to find out. Let you know.
