Family "Outdoor" Vacation, August 8-14, 2010

***Traveling through Fontana! We stopped to see the Dam...my Papaw, J.R. Corbett, helped build it. It was great to see as a family. Beautiful water....
















***Day Hikes in NC






















***First Train Ride, Bryson City, NC. TOTALLY Loved it---the ride AND Bryson City! If you love great books, I will suggest BRYSON CITY TALES, by Dr. Walt Larrimore. This book is of his first practice, here in Bryson City. LOVED IT. Also, if you visit Bryson City, I'd highly recommend "Cork & Beans" restaurant.





























***Some of our time at Nantahala Village Resort & Spa time, Bryson City, NC. We would recommend the 13 Moons restaurant.
















***On to Cherokee, NC....
























***For this part of the trip, we headed for our second train ride in Stearns, KY. God is good. We met new friends, Ashley and her oldest son, Avery, on the train ride. We had a terrific time---and made new friends! Love ya, Ashley and Avery!













***A few short walks around the area...







***Our Last Stand.... We met up with David, Jenny, and Ben for a hike to Chairt Creek Lodge. It was pioneer's finest with food and showers provided! We all had a blast...we always do with these special friends. Thanks, again guys! FYI: www.charitcreek.com
