Sunset pictures by grandkids

It's the last day of August, so it's fitting that we end our series of pictures by our grandkids with their beautiful sunset pictures.  These were all taken from the top deck at Smoky Mountain Tower.  The first one was taken by Lindsey.

You remember Lindsey.  She's a junior at Anderson University in Indiana, and the gal with the 'fish moustache!'

Now, here's a sunset picture by Zack, who is a high school senior at the Schaeffer Study Center in Mt. Juliet, TN.

What do you think?  Personally, I think both of these young people have a great eye for photography.  But then, that's what you would expect from a 'papa,' isn't it.

You, too, can enjoy sunsets like this when you stay with us at Smoky Mountain Tower.  Just go to www.SmokyMountainTower.com/Availability to find the best dates for your visit.

Fish moustache

When Lindsey (granddaughter), Kathy (daughter) and Kyle (grandson) were in the Smokies recently, they visited one of their favorite places - Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies.  So instead of showing you a picture BY Lindsey, here's a picture OF Lindsey - in one of those picture tubes at the Aquarium.

I've heard of a fish sandwich, but this is the first time I've seen a fish moustache!

The Aquarium is just one of the great attractions you can enjoy in Gatlinburg.  And when you stay with us at Smoky Mountain Tower or All Decked Out, we'll give you a pass good for 10% off your admission and gifts at the Aquarium - and up to 20% off at almost 30 other restaurants, shops and attractions in Gatlinburg.  That's just one more benefit you get when you stay with us.

So make your reservation quickly - fall dates are filling up fast!
