My Road trip... to New Orleans

I am frantically preparing for an all-night drive... I prefer to drive at night when the roads are mostly clear. I am driving to Dollywood for my first post-band visit. It is good testing ground for my food addictions since the food there is to die for. I am going twice during this trip on the way to New Orleans and on the way home from New Orleans... Why would you do that, you crazy biotch? Well, I love Dolly Parton, but that's not why, I love the theme park, but that's not really it... I think I love the atmosphere during her festivals, This week is the Harvest Gospel Festival... and next week starts the Smokey Mountain Christmas. So I am hitting both. We have annual passes, and I enjoy the area of Tennessee too. I was hoping to see Lynda (This time next year...) when I drove through Georgia but I will probably see her on the way home in a week. We'll see... After we visit Dollywood, we are stopping in Alabama to see my favorite Bama Girls Kim (Goodbye Fatty McButterpants) and Kristen(*Kristen's LapBand Journey*)... I love them both, we had a slumber party til 4:30am in Chicago and laughed til our ports popped. And the Bama girls will get to meet my George for the first time. Then a few days in New Orleans before we leave on our cruise.... I am Super Excited. If there's a chance that any of you live in the Atlanta area, Pigeon Forge/Gaitlinberg area, Birmingham area, or New Orleans area... I would love to meet you if you have the time email me, or facebook message me from my link...
