Benjamin and Isaac blew out their birthday candles in February full of wishes of trains and a family adventure day. So, we planned a day trip to the Smoky Mountains to find an incline train (74% grade at the top of the mile or so run), scenic views, an elevator that descends 260 feet into the mountain (Benjamin's favorite detail/event to recount), a cave AND a waterfall. It was a perfect, perfect day. To quote Benjamin, "This city is AMAZING!" Just don't get stuck in the traffic coming off the mountain of Ruby Falls or the construction on Highway 78 a stone's throw from your own house. We were stuck so long in that barrel of problems that we could have walked home faster. Really. But that still didn't ruin our perfect day. Besides, it all ends well when it ends at Shane's Rib Shack and two for one meal coupons!
Note to self. Bottle of barbecue sauce in the suitcase to Tahiti.
The picture of Eric and Dylan walking along the sidewalk is priceless. They have the same gait, the same arm movements, etc.
ReplyDeleteAll the pictures are great and it looks as if you had a wonderful adventure that day. What a fun place to visit!!
Looks like you had such a fun little vacation.
ReplyDeleteSigh, the boys are growing so fast! Dylan is a little man now!
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking the same thing as what mom wrote- Dylan is a little Eric! Too fun.
