That ride through the mountains was a little scary, but very beautiful. Got to see the smoke coming off the Smokies.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10613226474582263185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-60486255477506688802010-08-18T17:00:39.416-07:002010-08-18T17:00:39.416-07:00Harriet - I like grits a lot, but I haven't ea...Harriet - I like grits a lot, but I haven't eaten them yet here since I'm enjoying so much other food!<br /><br />Jennifer - Hope you make it here OK; I'll head toward the meetup, too.<br /><br />Linda - We must be close by to one another!Greta Koehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429623811794360612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-79207304442399048802010-08-18T14:06:03.575-07:002010-08-18T14:06:03.575-07:00I have those eyes out my window!I have those eyes out my window!Linda McCauleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08402203453403304529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-12481898985293832282010-08-18T07:12:57.970-07:002010-08-18T07:12:57.970-07:00Hi, Greta!

Hope you don't get too much rain in Knoxville! Grits are on the menu most places but not all southern people eat grits. I can't remember the last time I ate grits.Harriethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03339372849441019621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-7361753570595413502010-08-17T18:24:00.087-07:002010-08-17T18:24:00.087-07:00Thank you, Elizabeth!

After living most of my younger years in California, I was also amazed at southern eats - in Texas, it was the chicken fried steak.Greta Koehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05429623811794360612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-81712600853724093782010-08-17T17:54:33.136-07:002010-08-17T17:54:33.136-07:00I haven't been to Knoxville in 16 years, and I...I haven't been to Knoxville in 16 years, and I soooo wish I was there with you now! I do remember the people of east Tennessee being very friendly; the waitresses always asked if we wanted grits with our orders... being a Cali girl, I didn't even know what grits were (I do now, because my southern husband loves 'em)!<br /><br />Have a wonderful time at FGS, and thanks for sharing these images!Elizabeth O'Nealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03191827688514996520noreply@blogger.com
