We lived in Rutledge, TN just outside of Knoxville and we absolutely loved it. We were there for 8 years and we would still be there today if my only daughter who has my only two grandchildren wouldn't leave Texas. So we moved back to Texas because I refuse to be a long distance grandma. Those Smokey Mountains are simply amazing. This is setting a precedent I hope and I hope lots of other states follow suit. I was shocked recently when I heard some child rapist is getting castrated. I think we need to be well aware that we taxpayers have to feed and house these criminals while they are in prison and take a more proactive approach to doing so. If I have to help pay their room and board, then I should also have a right to say what kind of punishment they receive and for me that would be most definitely be death. There are better uses for my tax dollars.
There's another anon looking to move there. I am glad to know it's a great place.
Oh it most definitely is. I didn't like Memphis and Nashville is all about music and a great place to tour. But if you want the beauty of those Smokey Mountains, then Knoxville and surrounding towns are where you want to go.
The Smokey was magical during the fall colors.
Don't even get me started on that. I wish I could share my very favorite picture but that would be too personal. It is a picture of our log cabin with all the fall colors behind it. I loved it so much I had it printed on a canvas print and I proudly placed it on our living room wall. I love looking at it. That is one thing that we truly miss.
