Natural Tunnel Park

Last weekend we went to Natural Tunnel in Kingsport, TN with the Real Cruze's. We had a picnic in the park, a short photo session, and then a small hike to the tunnel, which we couldn't go in. So we just looked at it.






Lori and I took Lydia and Kacie down on the chairlift, while the dads were left with 8 kids and a stroller. I felt bad, a little.


This is Lover's Leap. The legend is, an indian warrior and princess from different tribes fell in love but were forbidden to be together so they climbed this ridge and jumped off as the sun rose, hoping they would be together in the afterlife. The kids didn't get it. Why did they jump off? That doesn't make sense! They were crazy. I'm never falling in love! So romantic.



This weekend is bike shopping and barbeque. No tunnels.

    Was it worth going to? I'm just wondering whether or not to make the little day trip for our family. Thanks in advance
