    Going to the 'Shades of the Past' show

     



    It's almost time to head up to Pigeon Forge for the 'Shades of the Past' show. My wonderful wife, Terry, our spoiled rotten Sheltie dog, Tillie and I are leaving tomorrow for the beautiful mountains of Tennessee. We’ve rented a nice chalet with a gorgeous view from the deck and it’s only a couple of miles from the event. We’re going to spend 4 days in PF then spend a couple in Chattanooga visiting my grandmother to celebrate her 94th birthday on 9/15. I’m really looking forward to this trip!!! Will see you guys in about a week.

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

    Mike,
    Sounds like you and your family are in for a real treat a place to stay, Mountain View, and close to the event plus seeing your Grandmother of 94 years old what a blessing, my grandmother was 91.
    Have a safe trip take a lot of pictures.

    Richard

    Green34ford,
    Sure would like to go maybe some year if I can get myself together, I hope you take a lot of pictures also enjoy your trip. If you see a nice 54 Merc please take a picture for me.
    Richard

    will do Richard, it usually wall to wall car heaven.

    Mike if you have never been or anyone else that's going remember the street called teaster, lane it's your friend. it will get you off the strip and you can cut into almost any street going back to parkway. it runs parallel to parkway and is better than sitting in traffic for hours and not moving.

    34, Thanks for the tip but I'm originally from Chattanooga, been going to the Shades and the Grand Run for many years, also remember when it was held in Gatlinburg. Moving to Florida doesn't stop us from enjoying a little piece of Tenn heaven when we get the opportunity.

    I just got home from work, it's getting late, gotta hit the road soon, will bring lots of pics when I return.
