If you haven’t had a chance to visit the Smoky Mountains yet this year, there is still time to make mountains of memories in 2007!
The benefits of visiting the Smoky Mountains late in the year are numerous beginning in mid-October with the spectacular show of autumn leaves splashing their vivid colors across the mountains. The Harvest Festival finds the town full of pumpkins, scarecrows, and cornstalks as local businesses compete in decorative display contests that set the scene for a feast for all of our senses. Locals and tourists alike delight in the goodies of the season! Who can resist such temptations as fried apple pies, homemade cider and donuts, or the many different barbecue festivals that flavor the air?
Fall is a great time to rake up the savings at the many outlet centers and specialty shops in the area. If shopping is at the top of your Pigeon Forge itinerary, make sure you visit the many craft fairs and festivals in the area. Some of the finest crafters make their way to the mountains at this time of year to help get a jumpstart on holiday gift giving.
Those looking for outdoor adventures can explore the glorious colors and sights that the National Park has to offer. The park can be enjoyed numerous ways. You can explore on foot or horseback, via car or even on a wagon full of hay in Cades Cove. Making the hike to Clingman’s Dome (the highest peak in the Smoky Mountains) allows for some of the best views of the changing foliage.
Crowning the harvest celebration is Dollywood’s Gospel and Harvest Festival. The park offers a host of special shows featuring various southern gospel and country entertainers. Dollywood also has many craft exhibits and some fascinating displays showcasing the life of pioneer settlers in our mountains. Of course, Dollywood serves up an enormous amount of ever-present excitement in the form of great

Okay, let us go! Come on now! Get that abs and back working! What that are feel amazing? Okay, stop! Does anyone recognize this story? I know I do. It is the pretty much the same as thing on every exercise and fitness show I have ever seen. There is always some man or woman in good shape, screaming at you with a grin on their face. Do you know why they are grinning? Well, one reason is that they are making oodles of cash. However, do you know the other reason they are grinning? I will tell you why because it is easy for them. Come on! They have done that same routine a million times before. Therefore, while you are struggling with it, they are barely breaking a sweat. This can be annoying. That is why I avoid exercise shows. What I prefer is a tad more personal. I like to get my own equipment, learn proper form, and exercise alone. Oh, but I do have to have my booming exercise music. It gets me fired up.
When you think of exercise, what comes to mind? For me it is weight training. I can really get into this fitness. There is just something about benching more than you actually weigh. It feels good and reminds you that you are strong. However, when I go all out with my weight training, I require some hardcore exercise music. Now when I say exercise music, I am not talking about that girly garbage they played on “Flash dance.” I am talking about some rip-roaring rock. I want stuff like Rob Zombie screaming about being more human than human. I want “Disturbed” raging at the top of their lungs. I need some heavy-duty exercise music that is going to push me harder and harder. I need a reason to shove that 250-pound bar off my chest. I want motivation. I want to be in the zone. Can you hear what I am saying?
Therefore, it has clearly been established that there are different sorts of exercise music. There is stuff for people and then there is that Britney Spears trash. No, this is just joking! It is not trash to some folks. However, it is just not quite enough to get me psyched and ready for some serious lifting. If you would like a variety of popular exercise music, you can always check out the broad selection on the web. Try Amazon.com and you cannot be disappoint.
