Red Top Farm - Sevierville, Tennesee

When the sun is out on a cold day I like to ride around our area just to see what is going on.

I knew that Dolly Parton's family had a farm nearby and thought maybe those of you who just love Dolly would like to see it.

Dolly has several places she hangs her hat. One is an enclave in Pigeon Forge with the old homestead, redone inside of course, a small church and places for her security to live. Tall wooden fences surrounding it.

The other is an apartment inside of Dollywood above a small eatery there. But, I think maybe what she liked the most was to spend time at the Red Top Farm with her Mother and Father and Sisters and Brothers and the entire Clan.

Both her parents are gone now but I bet the home is used for getogether time when she is in town.
Dolly is from Sevierville and well loved by many Tennessean's as she has done a lot for this area and the locals. Yet, sometimes it can be over the top.

So........The Parton Farm - Red Top.

Thanks for the peek into Dolly's homes. I've been to your area once, but only for two days (for a car show). I'd love to come back and enjoy the mountain loveliness.

Cool post. I have spent some time vacationing in TN and love that area. I absolutely LOVE Dolly Parton. She makes me happy just to look at her. She's always smiling.

Happy Valentine's Day.

That is a red-top house! And it looks very welcoming and not at all "celebrity" or stand-offish. The clear blue, winter sky is lovely.

Also your header picture, which I'm guessing is the Smoky Mountains is very beautiful.

Moving my family to Sevierville in 16 days. I was there a couple of weeks ago to find a house for us and drove by the Red Top Farm a few times on the way to the house I found for us. I couldn't believe it, it is just as my wife's dream house that she has been describing for many years. She has not seen it yet but she will. So I looked it up. What do you know! It's a Dolly Parton house. She sure has good taste. We love Dolly's music. Can't wait to show the house to my wife.

Why I started to Blog.....

If you like to write, being a story, a poem, an article, your thoughts for others to see blogging is the way to go.

Being creative only since 2007 when I joined an internet group on yahoo and then a webiste for creative people on Swap-bot, this has been a way for me to write and create.

There are a great many bloggers with many creative ideas and stories to tell and I wanted to join in so here I am and I hope lyou will enjoy my muse.

I have gone thru a new phase in my life since 2007 and that is crafting. I did ATC's in all mediums and have started to think about quilting. I have done some fabric things. I have made fabric postcards in a yahoo group and did over 150 of them. Then fabric ATC's and they account for a few, but have two big looseleap books of paper ones I swapped with others. There are so many talented people and this is the way to find them.

In 2009 I really go into making fabric journals, inchies, other dolls and the lapquilts for my grandchildren.

It is 2012 and only one month left of this year.
Still doing swap-bot challenges. I think I have sent out over 1200 postal packages, letters, cards, goodies to people by now and intend on sending more as long as the post office doesn't get more extreme than they are already.

However, I did get the bug to write. I may not be great at it. I was a terrible in my English class at school. However, I love to write in journals, I make up nonsense stories to my grandchildren. Now I put all my writings down in a binder for my children and grandchilden can see what I did in my later lifetime. Even poetry has entered my thoughts as you can see on this blog.

Swap-bot has become addictive for me. I love trading crafts and things with others. To see abilities of others as they send you things they make. Wonderful fun!

Just go to http://www.swap-bot.com/ and see all the fun things you can share with others.
