Smoky Mountains Craftsmen Guild tour

The original plan was to wait till mid-morning and go to down town Gatlinburg and take the aerial tram up the mountain. Well, best laid plans and all... We went for a quick recon trip to the craftsmen guild loop road to check it out and see what we might want to do later in week. A quick stop yielded a giant bear carved from a section of tree (yep it fit the van) then a second stop yielded a few candles, and so on. We stopped in a leather shop and I ordered a custom tooled holster and would have it done later this afternoon. He turned us on to great place to eat lunch:



The Wild Plum, and Ross had lobster pie and Dottie had chicken salad. They were fantastic - both of them.

Found a new girlfriend for george:



And we got some garden ideas:



After lunch and waiting to pick up holster, we drove to park visitor center to get map, tour suggestions and the obligatory hats.


Tomorrow is another day. Perhaps another try for the tram and Hard Rock Cafe?
