That's the way I'm coming to Gatlinburg on Thursday. We're going to pickup Ken at the junction of 321 and the parkway and make the drive to Park Grill.

That drive is great.... Once you get past Townsend (?).... and it goes to on lane each direction.... and then into the Smoky's National Park.... Great roads!

Great roads if you don't get behind a RV!!!

OK...Guys !!! That is the way that our Caravan, will be coming also.....
...We always make a final stop for gas, and a break @ the Exxon station, about 3 miles, back towards Marysville, ( on the left, if coming from the Foothills )

...would be awesome if we could meet here, and do the caravan to Gatlinburg / Park Grill...together !!!!

Denny, make sure you give me a call when you get there. If we get there first, we'll wait for you.
