    Next day we went to a PA Dutch buffet, pretty good. Much better than
    some of the tour bus buffet meals we had in Pigeon Ford last year.

    I'm a 75 to 90 minute drive north-northeast of Pigeon Forge.

    That town is a HUGE tourist trap.

    Isn't that the location of Dollywood? C&W's monument to Big hair, big
    errrrmmmm attributes, and trying to emulate Walt Dizzy ....

    I go to Sevierville every so often since I like to go to Smoky Mountain Knife shop (the biggest in the world), the enormous Tanger Outlet Mall, and the Coleman outlet store across the street from SMKS.

    Having money to spend helps too. :D

    Hello Dave,

    Yes it is. However, Dollywood is much nicer than Disneyland by orders of magnitude: DW is much friendlier, cleaner, and cheaper. I have only been to DW once. My second wife used to get a pair of tickets to DW each year as a Christmas present from her former employer. We went on December 28. The big rides and the adjoining water park are closed but all of the artisan shops were open as were the Christmas shows they were still performing.

    What is fun is that Dolly does have a museum on site. What many don't know is that above the museum is a small two-bedroom apartment she and her husband will stay in when they are in the area. A friend who has yearly passes was there last year and Dolly came strolling down the stairs. She walked around, greeted everyone, and shook their hands like she was just a next-door neighbor stopping by for a visit according to my friend.

    As a friend told me, the lack of money is the root of all evil. :P

    Later,
    Sean
