If your still able to get online, and read this
- check out Cade's Cove!!! It's a settlement from the 1800s, it's like waking up on Little House on the Praire!

I was there about 24 years ago, when my kids were little, and then again on our honeymoon 4 1/2 years ago. I would live right next door if I could in a heart beat!! lol!!! You can go in all the old buildings and check them out, and it's got to be the most beautiful scenry I've ever seen!!
Someday I'm moving down there!!
And we lost our brakes too, going down mountain! lol!!! But they started working again, apparently they just got too hot. Although we did have to get new ones when we got back home.
:D
