Our anniversary is Oct. 12th and we always try to plan a week-end getaway that includes the fall colors...A couple years ago we were up at a cottage near Mackinac City (Michigan)...we spent a week driving the coast of Lake Huron and Lake Michigan..and went across the bridge into the U.P. ..The color was great and the views of the lakes were amazing!

 

Here is the view from the top of a light house..not sure which one (we must have climbed a dozen)..but I think it was New Presque Isle Light House (Old Presque Isle light house is haunted...quite the story :) )

This is a pic of the Tahquamenon Falls in the Upper Peninsula..we seen this and White Fish Point...Great lakes ship Wreck Museum.. (Edmond Fitzgerald)..along with the Soo Locks (Sault Ste. Marie)

Last year we didnt have that much time to spend so we just took a day trip South to "Amish Country" (Holmes County Ohio...about a 2 hr drive) ..Again the color was great and its always cool to see the way things were done in a simpler time (well..for us...for them, its STILL their way of life)..

Well...i live in Ohio, and funny you should mention Gatlinburg...

 

30 years ago when we got married, I couldnt take too much time off work, so our "honeymoon trip" was a trip to Gatlinburg and a drive through the Smokey Mountains..we were a bit early for the color ...We climbed the    "Chimney Tops"    and went to  Klingmans Dome  , but as we got there, the fog (clouds)rolled in and we could hardly see our hands in front of our face  :(  .We drove along the Blue Ridge Parkway into Cherokee North Carolina and then back home....We haven't been back since, but always say we are going to go back when the leaves are changing...

Looks like a fun way to tailgate  :)

 

I didn't know Tennessee had had a place big enough for the Navy to dock their boats  ;) :P

 

On a side note, when my Brother-in-Law ,who retired from the U.S.Navy,was in his last year, he transferred to Tennessee.....I was confused...I mean, why is the Navy strategically located in Tennessee?....lol

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
