Christmas Trip - Day 10

Left hotel at 1030. Stopped at TN info center - weather was great! Figured out how to get into Great Smoky Mountains National Park - at Visitors Center by 1415. Saw some great sites - even with snow and ice in the park. Checked out Gatlinburg... Also explored a frontier town on the Cades Cove auto tour. Drove over to Athens, TN, for gas and a late lunch (early dinner?). Nicky wanted to drive, so I let her. She freaked out in Birmingham - couldn't get merged and stopped in the middle of the road (blocking traffic). She wanted me to get out and switch seats, but we made it through OK... Pulled over just outside of the city, though, and I drove the rest of the way home. Took I-59 all the way to Tuscaloosa before stopping again (dinner at Taco Bell) - Nicky called home. Made it to Meridian by 2315. Dropped Nicky off at home and headed back to the house. Bed after midnight.

Christmas Trip - Day 9

Left Dennis at 0730. Made good time to Warwick, RI - had breakfast at Burger King. Nicky enjoying the ride on I-95 (she wanted to stop at places all day long...). Drove across the Hudson at the GW Bridge again (hardly any traffic) and I tried to show Nicky that you can sometimes see some of the buildings down on Manhattan - she got mad at me for looking outside too much! Lunch in Ashmont, NJ - then had to take a 54 mile detour for construction. Back on I-78 eventually, and stopped at Hershey, PA, for some information on the park and chocolate factory (couldn't stay). Using I-81, made it to West Virginia border by 1800. Stopped in Christiansburg for gas and then decided to get a hotel there. Not too bad of a day - will help us get home earlier tomorrow...
