Take a look around the web site you may find a new car!


Looking for a fun family road trip? You can take a train ride in North Carolina, on the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway's four hour trip through the mountains. Don't forget to take your camera! 
If your still looking for a place to go, take in the Blue ridge parkway close to Blowing Rock, North Carolina. The Grandfather mountain is a sight you will not want to miss out on. You can either drive it or take a hike to take in all the fall colors. 
In Tennessee, you will love to take a ride through Cades Cove. Here you may see white tail deer, wild turkey or even a black bear. There is a tour you can drive and you be able to take in all the beauty the area offers. Plus there are several stops of old cabins you can stop and go in. It's located close to Townsend, Tennessee. 
In Alabama, you need to go to the highest point in Alabama and see Mount Cheaha state park. It seats 2,407 feet above sea level.  They have a hotel and restaurant, cabins and campgrounds.
