Hey guys, getting hitched in early April, the soon to be and I are looking for a decent place to take a honeymoon. I dont fly or ride on boats so looking to drive somewhere. Dont want it to be one of these high end places just a nice place with some things to do around. Been looking on the www but havent found much so thought Id come here.

thanks for the help and ideas :D

can't help on a place to go but do want to CONGRATS TO THE BOTH OF YOU

Dave, I said too that I never would fly. Well, that changed. I love the acceleration of take off and once you get up in the air, you can distract yourself with a video game, Ipod or alcohol!!! It is not that bad, trust me. There are plenty of drivable spots. Niagra Falls, the beaches on the east coast, great places to hit in Tenessee like Nashville and Gattlingsburg or go north into Canada.

Oh yeah... Congrats and remember, do not lock your knees when standing at the alter!!!

Absolutely David, Congrats!!!

congrats, i would take a look at gatlinberg tn, should be nice that time of year.

Another one bites the dust! :D

Congrats!!

Dave, I said I would never fly then I had to and believe me it is not bad. I've only been to 2 places by plane but it was pretty awesome. You really need to consider it because it would give you many more options not to mention how much less time just driving. Whatever you decide to do have fun and be safe. Congratulations to you and yours.

:arrow: as close to niagra as you are, you might think about that, get a motel overlooking the falls. Im only 25 min. from gatlinburg, tn. we go often, its usually just lots of people walking up and down the streets. lots of small shops and thing to do. there is jewelry, clothing, shoes, candy shops etc. but not to expensive. they have an aquarium there if you have never been to one. you walk under many type of fish like huge shark, sting ray, plus fresh water fish, etc. If you just wate until you get there you can look around for a motel. april 16-19 pigeon forge has a rod run at the grand motel pigeon forge is just a couple of miles from gatlinburg. there both on hwy 66. not a lot of tourist in april., motels are cheeper through the week the prices are advertised on the motel billboard. : : :D congrats. by the way i've been married for 29 happy years. we started in church and we were in church today with two of my three sons and there wives, and 2 grand sons 7mo. and 27 mo. :?:

I with the masses on this one, Pidgenforge/Gatlinburg is a great place to honeymoon, lot's of things to do, a few old car and performance museums, in fact up until last yr. we always had a family camp out at Frozen Head State park for 3 or 4 days. Beautiful area over there and we always spend one day going to Gatlinburg, but hold on too your wallet, your new bride could take away your racing budget for 2009.

And Congrats.

Zip.

Congrats David, wish you the best. Oh i hope she likes racin'

Good Luck

Plus your closer to NY and Canada than most of us on here.I just got back from a cruise to the Bahamas and had a blast!!! I never flew but once until i got married now ive flew 8 times,its great and not bad at all!!!!!! :mrgreen:

8) hey im just up here in lousiville on the otherside of frendsvile . :wink: hey what are those 340 heads for :!: :?:

thanks everyone !!

Flying is out for medical reason or I'd be on the big bird. Been looking at cabins in Gatlinburg much better prices then I was figuring on I think we've found a few thank you all, was looking for something just like this not to far, be warmer down that way then up here also.

I will be going that way April 13-18th so weather should be decent. Did I hear a rod show also :lol: mama already knows we will be watching some drag racing on the way home that saturday lol

Congrat's on your wedding, Me and my wife went to Gatlinburg, 24 years ago, there is a Rod Run that month [april] :) :)

Wedding
 

Congratulations, hope you have a long and happy marriage. :D

Congratulations David that is great!!!

If you end up close down there Music City Raceway is a great place to check out. http://www.musiccityraceway.com/ Alot of fast door cars, fun to watch.

:arrow: :) over in louisville near allison boats.

hey david i'm going to the rod-run in the piegon-forge to,if you go holler at me and we should hook up and meet,my ann is april the 16th so yes on our honeymoon the rod run was there and like to never got to our room,,,steve

yeah David i believe the grand rod runs is the 17 18 and 19 of April. there is thousand and thousands of people and cars there

David, tomorrow is my and my wifes 20th aniversary. Misery loves company. Just kidding. It has gone very fast. We love to vacation in Florida. Namely Orlando. Love Disney and all the things to do down there. My wife has a web site with a ton of rental properties listed and she e-mails about 10 or so and makes them offers on houses. There are a ton for rent down there. We normally pay about $65-$85 per night for a 3-4 bedroom house. Some tell us GOOD LUCK,(some are not that nice) while others go for it. I think we have done that the past 4 years and have been shocked every time. Many homes just sit empty. Many are owned by people in England. (Don't know why.) But good for anyone who wants to vacation there. Dealing privately cuts costs for you. A little leg work will save you a ton. Myrtle beach in SC is pretty nice at that time also

I lived in Buffalo for 40 years so be careful, it could still be snowing in Niagara Falls in April. I now live in South Carolina and don't miss the cold or snow at all.

Good luck and enjoy. Mark

Me and my wife will be at the rod run also, we will be in HER Challenger, vitamin c orange in color.

Congrats to you my friend!! We went to Hawaii & it was overrated. Spent 3500 & got sick too. Anyways, go have fun & make babies. Rigsby

Congrats David,
Me and my better half spent the wedding night at the drag strip and then we headed off to Gatlinburg (sp?) TN and had a great time, almost as much as we did at the track. Congrats again

Chris

Congrats, David & friend! I agree that Pigeon Forge would be great, that is one nice car show. I haven't been there , but have friends that have and they say it's alot of fun.
Good Luck to you both.

Leaving in a few minutes for our honeymoon in Gatlinburg if anyone see's a bright yellow shirt that says US 131 Survior on it @ that rod show.. that'll be me stop and say hello :D
