Near bye in Tennessee or West Virginia



To the south is Pigeon Forge, TN - Home of Dollywood

The New River Gorge Bridge,
This view is only 2 1/2 hours away.....


 Lost World Caverns - Near bye in West Virginia and only a 2 hour drive is something awesome. I have seen these in another location myself when I was younger, but, this looks much better.
"Descend 120 feet below the Earth's surface into a vast wonderland of stalactites and stalagmites. Lost World Caverns, discovered in 1942, is a truly magical place for both young and old. It takes approximately 45 minutes to walk through. We offer self-guided tours so you can take your time to explore the cavern at your own pace. Just remember to stay on the trail. A guide sheet is provided to tell you about the many different formations that make up this 1/2 mile loop. No matter what the temperature on the outside, the cave always remains a constant 52 degrees. A light jacket and good shoes are recommended. "

Busch Gardens near Williamsburg, VA

"A visit to Busch Gardens is quite the journey packed with pulse-pounding roller coasters, sensational family attractions and exciting seasonal events. An autobahn touring experience through Germany’s scenic countryside takes a thrilling detour that pushes guests to the edge of their seats aboard Verbolten℠. Families will twist and turn through the forbidden Black Forest in a harrowing, action-packed adventure on the park’s newest roller coaster now open.
Verbolten is just the beginning of the excitement at the Williamsburg-area theme park.
