    Desolation and empty streets are the norm.... unless you happen to be standing outside of a particular type of shop. This is from a story about a shop in Uniondale.

    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    Some of you know exactly where this is. Pigeon Forge, TN. Just North of Gatlinburg, which both are a very popular tourist destination. The following are all pic's of the same area that is ALWAYS packed.

    Still trying to talk the wife into moving to Florida....she loves our current house though, and cost of living in Az is low. Now I'm working on her son. LOL.

    You don't have to sell me! I'm there dude. Housing and property taxes look pretty comparable to Arizona. Maybe I could have my wife found mentally incompetent? hmmmm….

    LOL. That's part of some of the attractions there. Many buildings have a "theme" of some sort. They even have an upside down White House and a Titanic building that mimics the ship. I believe many of them were modeled after some movie. Not quite sure what that particular one is.

    Easy to find from the street signs in your photo. It's in Pigeon Forge, TN. Google Maps' photo of the other side while under construction.

    Dollywood is there. :/

    I'll bet there are hundreds out of work from her Theme Park being closed. wow.

    That area is going to be hurt seriously also because it mainly caters to tourists and vacationers which my wife's family and us have spent 3 vacations together just a couple miles off that main street in the pictures. Beautiful area, bad virus.
    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    Tony, we have been to Pigeon Forge about 7 times in the past 3 years and have recently switched to the town a little bit South of there. Gatlinburg. It's a little less "touristy" and you are more in the mountains. Been there a couple of times but recently stayed there. Looking forward to going back to Gatlinburg for a week and half (unless this crazy stuff is still going on) later on in the year. The resort we stay at is right on the outskirts of town and has killer views of (mostly) undisturbed mountains.

    That area will be devastated by the lack of tourism without a doubt.
