We had a great tme, once we got there.
They changed our flights around so we ended up with an 8 hour layover in Detroit (that really sucked) but I bought a new hoodie jacket there (which is pretty cool) but it was still an 8 hour layover (did I mention how much that sucked?). But, once we got there, it was awesome.
The first couple of days were low key, visiting cousins and the like. Then we drove from Kentucky to Tennessee to go stay up in the mountains in a really awesome cabin. I mean 100% pure awesome. Bleu and I were in the loft, her sister and mother were on the main level, and there was a pool table in the furnished basement. Oh, and there was a hottub.
100% pure awesome.
And there were bears. Seriously. No joke. There were bears in the woods and one of them pooped on our driveway. Just to let us know he was there. So, every night, when we got back to the cabin, we were all watching to make sure Smoky wasn't lingering in the bushes.
But it was fun.
We saw some really cool shows in town, ate too much southern food (everything was deep fried or dipped in chocolate. my diet is ruined). And wrapped up our vacation with a visit to my sister-in-law's college, Fisk University. Beautiful campus but not really worth the five hour drive to get there and the three hour drive to get home.
The flight home was okay and it feels great to be in my own bed again. But I am sure gonna miss that cabin.
