Happy Early September, friends!

Slowly but surely, I think we’re all doing a fairly decent job of learning how to live in a world without Dolly. 💔

So now that we’ve all taken a moment to straighten out our under-draws, padded bras and checkered boxers, we are curious:

How many of you think a new holiday is in order to celebrate the one and only Dolly Parton 🎶👱🏻‍♀️🎸 by proclaiming September 25th as DP Day?

Hear us out…

It really wouldn’t require much in the way of preparation.

I mean, how hard can it be to throw on a few wigs (I’m thinking 7 or 8, max) as you’re walking out the door?

And of course you’d don your favorite sequined pink pantsuit with the coordinating open-toe shoes.

The ones wth the kitten heels.😸

Honestly, how would that look vary from almost any other morning?

Um hum… as I thought.

So give us a holler if you decide to pop by on the evening of September 25th.

Weather permitting, we’ll be holding court at the fire pit that evening, wearing nothing but jeans and a comfy gingham shirt with the sleeves rolled-up and a wig or two as icing on the cake. 💝

Happy Sunday, friends.

When guests come to stay with us, many choose to just hang out and chill. They enjoying meeting new friends at our amazing fire pit or swing in a hammock under our huge shade tree (His name is Frank) or rock the hours away in one of our delightful rocking chairs….

Sound good?

Then come on; we’ll be right here waiting for you.

But if you get a wild hair and decide to go exploring, here’s a cool destination to add to your list of places to see while you’re in our gorgeous mountains.

It’s called The Road to Nowhere.

It is a quirky destination in Bryson City which is not that far from us, AKA home base.

Here’s the short version of how it came to be:

When Fontana Dam was built in the 1930s, numerous nearby communities, many just tiny villages, were flooded. Sadly, homes and farms and families were displaced.

The government promised to build a road to allow the displaced residents access to the family cemeteries, etc. but an environmental issue of some sort halted construction. *I’ll have to research more about that part and get back to you*

The result of this incomplete project was a road which literally ends at the end of a tunnel.

Nowhere.

It’s an easy drive to the haunting, quarter-mile-long tunnel.

It’s lovely. And sad. 😞 Visitors often walk through the darkness just to ‘be’.

You can also continue on to several hiking trails if you’re so inclined.

It’s perfect for those days when you have nowhere to be and lots of time to get there.

Go.

It’s worth the trip. 💕

Ok, friends... gather 'round.

It's story time.

And like all favorite stories, I’ve told you this one before.

But it’s such a good one, it bears re-telling now and then.

And NOW is a great time to do just that.

Once upon a time, there were two lovely sisters, who were also motel owners.

They had just brought a new, tiny puppy into the mix to join our little fur family.

They named him Buster.

Awwwww… such a sweetie.

One lovely day, the sisters decided to run a few errands while the cleaning lady, our regular, was coming in to tidy up.

As always, the pups were very good about using their doggie door and typically stayed out of her way, especially when she was vacuuming.

Silly pups.

Anyhoo, our trusty Mrs. Clean had come and gone during the girl's afternoon outing as per usual.

Unfortunately, she had accidentally closed the doggie door which meant the darling doggies had nowhere to run and play.

Or do their ‘business’.

I believe the attached photos exemplify what can and WILL happen when two, ordinarily happy and well-behaved pup's *One the size of a refrigerator, the other the size of a refrigerator in Barbie's play-house* are left alone with no access to 'facilities'.

Especially when it’s a PUPPY 🐶

The moral of this story is…

Don’t. Ever. Do. That.

The end.
