Back in Cincy - YUCK!!!

Here are the rest of our pictures. Well, the highlights anyway. :-)

We drove to Gatlinburg and camped there one night. Yes, we camped in Tennessee the night that many tornadoes came through. They were in the west and we were in the east - thankfully. We just slept through a lot of RAIN!!! This is outside Ripley's Believe it or not - downtown Gatlinburg.

This was a cool place. Black light mini golf. Very fun. Everything was glowing.
Our helicopter ride over the Smokey Mountains.
This is an airboat - we rode in it through the everglades. This little fellow was right beside our boat.

Our Florida Trip

Well, I have a few more pictures but I am not able to upload them right now. I am trying to put them in order. So, I have some pictures from Gatlinburg to put on my blog. Check back in later.

Florida trip

This picture is on Rt 1 heading to Key Largo. The water is this close on both sides of the road. It's kind of freaky. I guess there is a 7 mile bridge if you drive far enough in the Keys - but we didn't make it that far!!

Enjoying the Florida Sun!! This is one of two 50s diners we found on our vacation. I think we were born in the wrong era! This is blowing rocks preserve in Hobe Sound, FL. The water has worn holes in the rocks and at high tide the water come in the holes and shoots straight up. Very cool. (Uncle Kendall's place is VERY NICE!!) Right on the water. I'm a little jealous.

We saw about 4 man o' war washed up on the beach. I really wanted to touch it. I think it should have been okay because it stings with the tentacles that hang of the "bubble" thing. What do you think?
I don't think I need to say much here. Our last meal in Florida at Chili's. Jude and Lois.....awww, aren't they cute?
