My dad has been on my brain, so I went with all the kindness strangers can give.<br /><br />You are so right and I liked how you said moving builds confidence. We moved away from family and friends to start our life here. We were young, newlyweds and had no friends or family. Jeremy and I both will say it was the best thing that happened to us. It made us GROW. :-)<br /><br />Have a great week!<br />Carla<br />Carla from The Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12107829617899979937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6934122631054104275.post-30229689039876073372017-04-26T09:52:06.635-04:002017-04-26T09:52:06.635-04:00I've done my fair share of moving, so I hope i...I've done my fair share of moving, so I hope it is not an experience to do again for awhile.

I do have great memories from childhood in the kitchen. I guess my thoughts went toward the food itself!

The bottom did drop out on Monday but that's about it. I loved Gatlinburg when I was growing up. My aunt took me there many times and it was touristy then. There are several places in the NC mountains that are more touristy now than they were when I was growing up and I would never have thought they could get even more so. So many times, in my opinion, the touristy stuff ruins a place. Guess who just got here? Baby M!
