I've been white water rafting down the Natahala. Big Fun!! There's horse rides in the mountains, ruby mining and all kinds of other fun stuff to do. And the Smokey Mountain mornings are SOOO beautiful!!

i love this method of travelling; just going and stopping whenever and wherever you feel like (which is how i intend on getting to florida as well) enjoy the trip! It will be my relaxation before going into graduate school. I never really got to travel much with having kido. I have a good car now and a little cash and some time... so I am going for it!

Would love too see you again maybe Savannah lunch/dinner??? sure! robin and i (and the kids) will be in st. petersburg for a couple of weeks. i'll send you our phone numbers via yahoo mail. i may change my mind and do I75 coming down (as i'll be the only adult driver, and my kids won't be any help navigating) and we'll head back the other way, stopping in washington DC for a day - but i'll definitely let you know our itinerary.
