Vacation in Tennesee - March 19-22, 2026

The Epic Weather and lack of Internet.

The weather made it hard to do much and the campground’s Wi-Fi was slow. On the 19th I drove to Townsend, TN, to the Mountaineer campgrounds. We set up and prepared for an extremely chilly night. Friday, we went driving around Pigeon Forge, but all we found was Dollywood. (Which we couldn't afford for almost $100 per person.) On the 21st we drove to Gatlinburg. The only thing that was cool about it was the drive through the smokey mountains. Other than that, Gatlinburg is just one big tourist trap. On Sunday before I drove home, we stopped in Cades Cove, we should have gone there first! This was the historical and scenic area my mom and I were hoping on. With me being new to photography, I took so many pictures, and I do not currently have the skills to edit them. The only thing I could do was start on my Photography Portfolio.

Photography Portfolio Creation

First subdomain creation.

I chose http://portfolio.amandalynnart.com. You can click the link to go to the site. It's another Work in Progress, but it's started.

Next, I needed a Site Brand that was similar, but different from the other sites.

ChatGPT to the rescue. I'm working on creating it from scratch, but needed a place holder.

The Site!

The portfolio needed to be simple, yet elegant and needed to keep with the fantasy theme.
