A Southerner's To-Do List

Southern Living has a to-do list for southerners. Some of them, like NASCAR and rafting, hold absolutely no appeal for me. I have always wanted to go to Savannah for St. Patrick's Day. I can't believe the price of these sweet grass baskets. All those pics make me want to go to Charleston and Savannah!

Best Weekend Getaway

Southern Living has named Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg the Best Weekend Getaway. I haven't read the article yet, but WBIR gives a preview. For locals, "getaway" has another meaning from April-January 2. Get away is what we do when we stay as far from the Parkway as possible during tourist season.

This whole tourist thing is a complex issue. I think I'll deal with it after I read the article.
