OK, so the Smokey Mountains!
One of the things I love about the South is the closeness to so many different things. Hills, mountains, beaches, lakes, waterfalls, scenic drives, and so much history!
From the Border Islands to Key West, to Beale Street, to Dallas, to Little Rock, Dauphin Island, Disney World, Atlanta....I could on and on and on....the Everglades, Miami, Athens (all of them), New Orleans.......
But the best part of all, is it usually is not hella cold.
