The Ultimate Cabin Experience at Eagles Ridge Resort

Posted on April 15, 2015 by Jan Ross

Although I am the ultimate beach fan, Tom is a big fan of cabins so I try to compromise sometimes and find him a mountain cabin. This is a pretty easy proposition in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee where I think the cabins must outnumber the residents of this mountain town located near the entrance to the … Continue reading »

Posted on April 8, 2015 by Jan Ross

Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, intrepid explorers dispatched by President Thomas Jefferson in the early 1800s to find a route across the western United States, did not have an easy trip.

Posted on April 6, 2015 by Jan Ross

Three years ago, I visited the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina for the first time and was immediately struck by the similarity between the lifestyle epitomized by this sumptuous estate and the one depicted on the popular BBC television show “Downton Abbey”, even writing an article about the similarities. Apparently, I was not the … Continue reading »

Firekeepers Casino Hotel

Posted on March 30, 2015 by Jan Ross

It’s ironic that we have discovered a love for casino hotels when we don’t even gamble. We first discovered casino hotels in Las Vegas (naturally!) and, aside from walking through the casino to access the outside doors, we never gambled once.
