Meet-Up LBS Girls Trip to Gatlinburg, TN
OP: November 10, 2019, 02:49:38 PM
LBS girls trip!!!  Ok, so we know Gatlinburg TN is the destination and March is the timeframe.  My current thought is a cabin(as large as is needed at a moderate price point).  Has anyone been before?  Suggested cabin area or activities?!

My first thoughts were hiking, nature, wine, maybe a cabin possibly with a hot tub, brunch, girl talk until the wee hours.

I live about an 8 1/2 hour drive and will be driving in.  Anyone interested?  Once I get a general idea of possible interest and ideas I will further narrow things down.

I am also going in February to ski with my single parent group and so may learn some more information about the area then.

BD-October 2018-ILYBNIL, wants a divorce, 2 OW at different times.
April 2019 He got an apartment and moved out.
Oct 2019-Apologized for a years worth of monster behavior.  Still wants to start divorce this Spring, is distant, but friendly.  Tries more with kids, but superficial.
2020-He has continued to help out when asked and be polite.  I do think he questions his choices at times.  I do not believe he has OW.
Oct 2020-He wants to get back together.  I am unsure. 
August 2021-.  He has shown very gradual, but consistent progress.  He moved back home.
December 2022-He has been home for 1 1/2 years reconnecting, in the room with me for several months. I now consider us reconciled.
October 2023-After two years home and being the man he should be, I finally fully let him back into my heart.

It’s about a 5-6 hour drive from me when I’m in Durham, NC.

I’ll know if I’m in town when it gets closer (I travel often for work).

So put me down as a maybe.  :)

Me to maybe.
I'll have to fly; too far to drive.
March is crazy for me with Spring Break (2 weeks) and moving into my new home!

I'd love to if I can make it work...
