If you are hungry for the best comfort food, then let the queen of southern cooking Paula Deen show you to her restaurant. After visiting the Opry, we were ready for lunch and decided to try out Paula Deen's Family Kitchen and I would say this is our new favorite place to eat. It is [...]
Originally the plan was for us to drive to Missouri to have a day at Silver Dollar City with my in-laws, but instead they decided to come here so they could help us work on our garden. Having them here meant Brad and I could go on a date and there is no better place [...]
After visiting the Slugger Museum, we then made our way to the beautiful historic district of Louisville. This area is full of colorful, ornately decorated homes from the Victorian period.

When you're in Pigeon Forge, there is no shortage of kitschy themed places to eat. There are dinner entertainment show for every taste and interest and a bunch of smaller themed restaurants as well. While we didn't really want to go to a dinner show on this trip (which is good since we would never [...]
