One of them was white water rafting. It was very exciting to do and is fun for the whole family. I really enjoyed paddling along the swift river and being able to laugh along with everyone. Other fun things were amusement parks and similar rides. There is an amusement park owned by Dolly Parton called Dollywood.
The dedication put into the construction of the street car is impressive. Several lives were lost due to landslides, and even after suffering these casualties, the building continued. But the street cars and the lake were just the beginning of what became the most popular park in the area. Every year, amusements improved and more people were attracted.

Many people picnicking here, families just having good times together. Walking down a trail I see a small glass with water and inside a cigarette put out.
