October - Gatlinburg, TN



Great Smokey Mountains National Park here we come!
                                                                                                                                                                           
                                        There is many fabulous entertainment options in Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg area.






We hiked almost to the top which is 1487 feet elevation change 1.75 miles. You can no longer hike the last .25 mile because of the fire in November 2016 that was started by 2 teenage boys.


We sat on a ledge & had our lunch while looking out at Mount Leconte.


October - REV in Indiana & visit with family in Cincinnati


We enjoyed meeting new friends during our short 5 day stay at the REV repair facility in Decatur, IN. Our 1st night there we had munchies & drinks with several of our new neighbors. Then 8 of us went out for dinner at a Mexican restaurant, men sitting at a table and us women at a table across from them. Fun group of people from all over the USA.
Bill and his 3 new buddies.

We were at REV much shorter time that we had allowed for. This freed up time for us to spend in Cincinnati to visit my sister and her family.

April 2017 - Gulf Shores, Huntsville & REV - Indiana

We stopped overnight at a peaceful little campground west of Tallahassee. We enjoyed meeting Bills cousins, Howard & Barb for dinner. They live in Sopchoppy, FL. I forgot to take a picture.

We made it to Gulf State Park, AL where we were able to camp near our friends from Michigan, Lori & Jim. We went to dinner with them a couple times and did a little biking.

                                          We had a nice site on Racoon Road.
                                                                          
We were able to bicycle on the 20+ miles of beautiful trails throughout the week we were there. Biked out to see Lefty - a must do. He lost an arm in an accident before Gulf State Park rescued him.

We drove to Fairhope, AL where we were able to visit friends, Bob & Val. They had recently purchased a house there and sold their house in New York. We had met them the previous year at Gulf State Park while bicycling with FOS. We had dinner out then walked out on the pier.
