Escapes

The great outdoors. The natural scenery that looks like a postcard and feels like a playground. Where every hike through the Great Smoky Mountains, fishing excursion on a Bill Dance Signature Lake or evening spent stargazing into the dark skies keeps you coming back for more.

Spread wings overhead, rushing river below, Pathways and trails through the cedar and oak, The breeze and birds sing you along, In the Tennessee air with a Tennessee song. Lace up your hiking boots and a nice warm coat, Grab a couple of friends and see where they go. Written about Cumberland Gap, Tennessee.
