I think our normal vacation of spending a week in a cabin on a lake in the rockies, seeing maybe a dozen people total, ruined our definition of "going on vacation in the mountains."

-=edit=- to clarify... Gatlinburg, pigeon forge, sevierville... it's a 12-mile-long clusterfuck of carnival sideshows and metal-fatigue "hillbilly rollercoasters" and ripleys-branded shit museums and a 24/7 traffic jams of trustfund kids in their shiny riceburning carollas with popcorn popper mufflers.

Literally any where else in the country would be quieter, more relaxing, more stress-free.

I don't understand why people would go back.

We drove through the natl park to get to our place (far south end of Gatlinburg) and missed the turnoff to get off that highway, ended up having to drive through downtown. God what a cluster.
