Day 22 - Gatlingburg - Tennessee
... To give a bit of an example the performers in the first show said, and I quote, "there's two people willing to die for you, the first was God the second the American soldier". It's great that they're proud, it just wasn't for me. I preferred one of the quotes from the second show, "I'm so excited I could thread a sewing machine running", what the?

The Hyatt Ridge Trail runs for about 1.9 miles before meeting up with the Enloe Creek Trail. And it is uphill the entire way, for more than 1000 feet of elevation gain.
