I took my wife and daughter over to Pigeon Forge, TN and Gatlinburg, TN for a winter vacation and boy did we get a WINTER vacation. When we arrived on Tuesday, the road from Gatlinburg to Pigeon Forge was open with one lane only due to a very recent rock slide that blocked the road. However the weather was pleasant until Thursday. Thursday evening while we eating dinner at the Olive Garden, the snow started to fall. The forecast was for a winter storm warning extending through Saturday evening at 4:00 PM.

There had been a rock slide on Interstate 40 in North Carolina so there was no way to get back to Charlotte except over the mountains with the best route being Interstate 40 through Johnson City TN, and Ashville NC. So we made an executive decision to ride it out and leave on Sunday.  For the most part the roads were clear with the exception being Hendersonville, NC where they had received 13 inches of snow.  Here are some pictures that we made in the GSMNP, and Hendersonville.
