Welcome to our BLOG

We're the Gabbards, Dad (Dave), Mom (Chris), and Daughters (Lydia and Lauren) and we are going to share our experiences of our life in the mountains. We bought our cabin in the Smokey Mountains in August of 2008. We made the permanent move to "Gabbards Getaway" in July of 2009. It's been quite a transition, but everyone seems to be settling into our new lifestyle.
