Ok, going really off topic here: These are some pics from my vacation to the Smoky Mountains in Tennessee. Not exactly Heavy Metal territory... ...hell, it was Dolly Parton's home town!
But, we had a mountaintop cabin (more like a luxury condo) complete with hot tub & pool table... ...not to mention an utterly spectacular view. It was quite serene. Nothing like a few days away from the stresses of the daily grind to recharge the creative batteries.
View from the cabin at dusk
some of the other cabins on the mountain
Gatlainburg from the National park
Smokey Mountains National Park
A few pics of the Ripley's Aquarium. They had a very cool "under the tank" tube/moving sidewalk
Some real Tennessee culture! No, I didn't retouch that photo!
