About sally kuhn
We both grew up in Arkansas but with school have lived in Texas, Florida, Tennessee and Maryland. We eventually ended up in the Nashville area.
Our favorite family vacation is hiking, especially in the Smokies. We are trying to hit all the national parks with our kids.
sally kuhn purchased this cabin in 2010
Why sally kuhn chose Wears Valley
We love the outdoors which is what drew us to this beautiful secluded cabin. We bought the cabin to have a vacation home that our kids would be drawn back to every year as they get older. We hope you and your family will enjoy it as much as we do and will use it to lure your family back together at special times.
What makes this cabin unique
We love the seclusion of the cabin and the changing views from the porch. Every 15 minutes the shadows and clouds have changed the incredible views off the deck. We also like the the easy access to the park and love being able to sneak in through Maryville instead of getting stuck in the traffic of Pigeon Forge.
We come to the Smokies to get away from it all. This cabin allows you to do that while still being within striking distance of all the go karts, funnel cake, and outlet malls we can handle.
The 9 acres has a stream and waterfall which was an added bonus we discovered after we bought it. Our kids have now become expert salamander hunters in the creek below the falls.

Gold & Silver Smashed As Incredible Events Unfold In Europe
On the heels of continued uncertainty around the globe, today an acclaimed money manager spoke with King World News about the gold and silver smash, China's continued massive accumulation of gold, and the incredible events unfolding in Europe. Below is what Stephen Leeb had to say in this fascinating interview.
Leeb: "Eric, overnight there was some data that was disappointing from China. Gold and silver have been hit, but strangely enough, oil has been firm. The key thing the markets are failing to realize is that the Chinese are getting the job done. They are not going to slow their economy to the point where they have high unemployment and riots in the streets....
Continue reading the Stephen Leeb interview below...
To hear which company just made one of the most exciting high grade discoveries
that just had a massive 101 meter drill strike, as well as
major financial backers click on the logo:
"Instead of China growing at 7.3 percent, maybe they will grow at 7 percent. How many times in its history has the United States grown 7 percent in a year? But I still think 7 percent is a lowball figure for China.
What was not included in that overnight release from China was that their gold purchases continue at a staggering rate. They are on pace to exceed 1,000 tons this year as well as the next two years, at least according to the World Gold Council. It's almost certain that China is going to end up with more gold than the United States if they don't already have more.
Another item which was not included in that release is the fact that China has now amassed close to $4 trillion of foreign exchange reserves. It's sort of silly to worry about a country that has $4 trillion of foreign exchange reserves. So I think the Chinese are doing very well.
It's impossible for the Chinese to run an economy that large without having problems, but they know what the problems are. They see them and they are addressing them. I think this quarter will be the slowest quarter for China and after that they will resume growing.
Turning to the situation in Europe, which I think is extremely interesting: The Bundesbank has announced that they would consider quantitative easing. They gave an opinion as to why this would not be inconsistent with European laws. With Europe recovering a bit, why would the ECB say that quantitative easing is now a possibility? I think this has to do with the fact that Europe is worried about Ukraine. They are also worried about the Baltic states. Their economies are starting to seriously weaken because of the sanctions the West has imposed on Russia.
The problems now emerging in the Baltic states are a threat to the entire European community. The countries have been showpieces for what the euro has achieved. So trouble spiraling out of control in the Baltic states actually threatens the euro. This is also the reason why (ECB President Mario) Draghi said they are going to do whatever it takes to get the euro down. They want a lower exchange rate for the euro. So Western leaders feel the only way out of this is to stimulate growth, and this will lead to greater inflation.
Meanwhile, China is maneuvering to get oil priced in something other than dollars. Obviously China is working with Russia to get this accomplished. The interesting thing here is that the Germans cannot back away from the euro, but their relationship is strengthening with China and Russia.
In this environment people should expect the unexpected. What if the Germans and the Russians formed a currency bloc? We don't know how wild things are going to get. As I said, when you see the Bundesbank signaling that it may engage in more QE, that is because of fear.
Everyone is focused on Ukraine, but what they are not talking about are these Baltic states. These countries are already losing big-time because of the sanctions that the West so unwisely placed on Russia. You are not hearing talk about more sanctions right now because increased sanctions could destroy the euro.
The bottom line is that in this type of environment, any significant dips in gold and other commodities should be bought. Any major decline in prices will be a huge opportunity to buy gold, and especially silver as well as other commodities. I say that because I firmly believe the Chinese have things under control and they are in a hurry to integrate their economy with the rest of the world.
Again, with $4 trillion of reserves and the massive movement of gold we continue to see from West to East, I think the writing is on the wall. Yes, gold, silver and other commodities may temporarily be hit, but don't be shaken by this because they will be headed into the stratosphere before this is over."

This lotion is my all-time favorite Olay hand & body lotion. It hydrates my hands and body for hours. In fact, so well that I do not have to reapply any lotion to my hands after washing. The scent is delicious too! I use the entire cucumber line in my household. Give it a try!
No, I do not recommend this product.
I was using the Luscious Embrace religiously and I love it as well, but when the store was out of it the last time they had the New Soothing Cucumber Lotion, so I gave it a try. I love it. It soaks into my skin and continues to moisturize until I shower again. It smells heavenly, but not over powering. I've also used the Luscious Embrace on my legs and the Soothing Cucumber on my upper body. The two together compliment one another.
I first found this product while visiting in North Carolina. I fell in love. It moisturizes wonderfully and the scent is light and fresh. Now I am having difficulty finding it in my area. Hope this helps get the word out and this great product is stocked on shelves everywhere!

The man spotted the viable device as he was getting into the vehicle in Tullycarnet to take the 12-year-old to school on Friday morning.
Police said it was only the vigilance of the former officer that prevented both him and his daughter from being maimed or seriously injured.
Officers described the device as being quite similar to other devices used by dissident republicans and that this is one line of inquiry.
We are extremely fortunate no-one was killed by this deadly device.Chief Constable Matt Baggott
We are extremely fortunate no-one was killed by this deadly device.
Chief Constable Matt Baggott
Constable Ronan Kerr was killed when a bomb detonated under his car in Omagh in 2011.
Four viable letter bombs have been intercepted in recent weeks after they were posted to targets including the Chief Constable and the Secretary of State.
Matt Baggott said: "In recent weeks, my colleagues and I have talked about an upsurge in Dissident Republican activity and today's events serve as a reminder to us all of the current severe threat. I would urge everyone to remain extremely vigilant and report anything unusual or suspicious."
The discovery sparked a major security alert in the Kingsway Park area. Police and army bomb squad officers remained at the scene, where a number of homes have been evacuated.
PSNI Chief Superintendent Nigel Grimshaw said: "I can confirm the police this morning, as a result of dealing with an ongoing security incident in the Tullycarnet area, have now recovered a viable explosive device.
"That device was discovered below a car belonging to a former police officer. I am very thankful to report to you that nobody has been hurt.
"But clearly yet again we are dealing with a situation where somebody could have been killed or maimed or very seriously injured as a result of a very, very reckless act in what is a residential area with lots of people going about their normal daily business."
Northern Ireland's political leaders have condemned the incident.
It is to be regretted that there are still Neanderthals out there who believe that this is an appropriate way for them to advance.Peter Robinson
It is to be regretted that there are still Neanderthals out there who believe that this is an appropriate way for them to advance.
Peter Robinson
First Minister Peter Robinson, of the DUP, said: "There are some elements of our society who have not caught the public mood that wants to move forward and see progress made.
"There are people that want to drag us back.
"Politically they will not break the progress that has been made, we will continue to work together to make a better community for the people that live here."
Sinn Féin deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness said: "The best way that we can prevent those involved in these types of activities is to make it clear to every citizen on the island who supports the peace process that they have a duty and responsibility to pass on whatever information they have."
Taioseach Enda Kenny, who was with the Stormont leaders at a political meeting in Co Armagh on Friday, also condemned those responsible.
Justice Minister David Ford said: "Those behind this murder attempt have once again shown an utter disregard for human life, not only for the life of someone who served the community but also his family and others living in the area."
The UUP's Ross Hussey MLA said: "It is clear that the current brand of physical force republicans remain determined to inflict their failed ideology on this society. "The Police are only as good as the intelligence and information they receive and it is therefore imperative that we all unite as a community to give the PSNI every possible support as they combat this terror threat," the Policing Board member added.
Anyone with more information has been asked to contact the PSNI.

James Joyce Dies; Wrote 'Ulysses'
ZURICH, Switzerland, Monday, Jan 13- James Joyce, Irish author whose "Ulysses" was the center of one of the most bitter literary controversies of modern times, died in a hospital here early today despite the efforts of doctors to save him by blood transfusions. He would have been 59 years old Feb. 2.
Joyce underwent an intestinal operation Saturday afternoon at the Schwesternhaus von Rotenkreuz Hospital. For a time he appeared to be recovering. Only yesterday his son reported him to have been cheerful and apparently out of danger.
During the afternoon, however, the writer suffered a sudden relapse and sank rapidly. He died at 2:15 A.M. (8:15 P.M., Eastern standard time).
His wife and son were at the hospital when he died.
Hailed and Belittled by Critics
The status of James Joyce as a writer never could be determined in his lifetime. In the opinion of some critics, notably Edmund Wilson, he deserved to rank with the great innovators of literature as one whose influence upon other writers of his time was incalculable. On the other hand, there were critics like Max Eastman who gave him a place with Gertrude Stein and T.S. Eliot among the "Unintelligibles" and there was Professor Irving Babbitt of Harvard who dismissed his most widely read novel, "Ulysses," as one which only could have been written "in an advanced stage of psychic disintegration."
Originally published in 1922, "Ulysses" was not legally available in the United States until eleven years later, when United States Judge John Monro Woolsey handed down his famous decision to the effect that the book was not obscene. Hitherto the book had been smuggled in and sold at high prices by "bookleggers" and a violent critical battle had raged around it.

So this Friday, I bought two enormous fat thick Penguin volumes of Jorge Luis Borges in utterly pristine condition (fictions and non-). I own other books that cover some of the material here, but 1100+ pages of JLB is hard to pass up (especially used, especially when I have store credit).
And then today, I was made privy to this lovely Flickr set, "Things found in books," and thought I'd play along.
So back to Borges: I was somewhat touched by this note (above) I found in the nonfiction collection: Mom sends the book to her son so he "may understand it," "this most difficult book"; mom also reports it "very hard to read" and appends a frowny face.
Maybe a week or two before, I found this lovely little wisp of paper:
In Vlad Nabokov's Lectures on Don Quixote:
Which reminded me of this James Joyce clipping—not so recent, I'll admit, but still carefully placed as a bookmark in a Finnegans Wake guide:
Okay, annotations, more properly:
Do most people leave stuff in books? I think most bibliophiles do. (Forgive the snobbish italics there. I'm sure there are bibliophiles who don't, of course). I have a habit of never reusing a bookmark, so that when I pull out a volume there's some little tag there that acts as a third point (along with the text and my addled brain) to help triangulate the reading experience (the concrete circumstances of the reading process, the where, the when, the how much, etc.).
And so, after finishing Pynchon's Against the Day a few weeks ago, I resolved to return to Mason & Dixon. Pulling out my copy, where I found an entry ticket to Wat Phra Ram in Ayutthaya. I'm pretty sure I bought the book in Chiang Mai (after buying V. in Bangkok; books were the only thing I ever thought were expensive in Thailand).
A few weeks ago my grandmother let me take one of my grandfather's favorite books with me when I left her house, a Walt Kelly collection.
I was thrilled to find inside the Pogo volume the syllabus of my grandfather's college chemistry class from the Fall of 1947:
And some of his notes (cryptic to me, but endearing):
I think the best part about finding my grandfather's old syllabus tucked away into a book he loved is knowing that we shared a habit.
"Counterparts" by James Joyce
THE bell rang furiously and, when Miss Parker went to the tube, a furious voice called out in a piercing North of Ireland accent:
"Send Farrington here!"
Miss Parker returned to her machine, saying to a man who was writing at a desk:
"Mr. Alleyne wants you upstairs."
The man muttered "Blast him!" under his breath and pushed back his chair to stand up. When he stood up he was tall and of great bulk. He had a hanging face, dark wine-coloured, with fair eyebrows and moustache: his eyes bulged forward slightly and the whites of them were dirty. He lifted up the counter and, passing by the clients, went out of the office with a heavy step.
He went heavily upstairs until he came to the second landing, where a door bore a brass plate with the inscription Mr. Alleyne. Here he halted, puffing with labour and vexation, and knocked. The shrill voice cried:
"Come in!"
The man entered Mr. Alleyne's room. Simultaneously Mr. Alleyne, a little man wearing gold-rimmed glasses on a cleanshaven face, shot his head up over a pile of documents. The head itself was so pink and hairless it seemed like a large egg reposing on the papers. Mr. Alleyne did not lose a moment:
"Farrington? What is the meaning of this? Why have I always to complain of you? May I ask you why you haven't made a copy of that contract between Bodley and Kirwan? I told you it must be ready by four o'clock."
"But Mr. Shelley said, sir——"
"Mr. Shelley said, sir…. Kindly attend to what I say and not to what Mr. Shelley says, sir. You have always some excuse or another for shirking work. Let me tell you that if the contract is not copied before this evening I'll lay the matter before Mr. Crosbie…. Do you hear me now?"
"Yes, sir."
"Do you hear me now?… Ay and another little matter! I might as well be talking to the wall as talking to you. Understand once for all that you get a half an hour for your lunch and not an hour and a half. How many courses do you want, I'd like to know…. Do you mind me now?" Read More
Film footage of the first Bloomsday celebration (June 16, 1954)–a great find by Antoine Malette, who posted the video along with an account of the journey as told in Flann O'Brien: An Illustrated Biography. The film was shot by John Ryan, and shows an extremely inebriated Brian O'Nolan (aka Flann O'Brien) having to be helped around by pals Anthony Cronin and Patrick Kavanagh. We're also treated to a scene of Kavanagh taking a piss with Joyce's cousin Tom Joyce, a dentist who joined the merry band. (The scene will undoubtedly recall to you that marvelous moment in Ulysses when "first Stephen, then Bloom, in penumbra urinated"). The troupe didn't quite finish their mission, getting sidetracked by booze and quarrels. Read the full account at Malette's site.
1. Here is a rambling riff if ever I rambled and riffed:
2, First, look, that lovely image—it's by Jean Giraud, aka Moebius. I came across it a week or two ago and digitally nabbed it.
I love Moebius's work in general and something about the image reminds me of Thomas Pynchon's Against the Day, although maybe I'm too immersed in the thick novel to not have much of what I see recall it in some ways.
Something about the airship and the horseman recalls an early passage where Reef Traverse, in the American West, dream-reads the airship adventures of The Chums of Chance into existence. (There are parts of Against the Day that recall to me Cormac McCarthy's westerns (sometimes—often—called anti-westerns, but come, let's be adults)…where was I going here? It's Friday and I've consumed the better part (aka "all") of a bottle of rosé and now I'm circling round some odd notes here—yes—the western/Western thing: Manifest Destiny, etc. — I see it in the Moebius illustration, but of course I bring it with me like a sickness. I move on).
3. " . . . boys to your bellybone and chuck a chum a chance!" — This is from James Joyce's Finnegans Wake (85.8). Pointed out to me by Roman Tsivkin, this seems like a most reasonable/splendid source for the namesake of our aeronaut adventurers (who seem rather, uh, absent of late in the final moments of the Bilocations book I'm in right now).
4. Data, perhaps imperfect (again, digitally nabbed)—
In Against the Day:
—Some form of the word invisible appears 173 times—
—The word inconvenience or inconvenient — 84 times—
—The phrase the day — 213 times (usually in a cadence suggestive of the book's title—some kind of rhythm to it, anyway)—
—The phrase against the day — once (unless you count the chapter (book, really) called "Against the Day," or the colophon, or what-have-you)—
5. I'm a few sections past this, but a nice passage to end on of a Friday night:
Among students of mathematics here, chloral hydrate was the preferred drug. Sooner or later, whatever the problem being struggled with, having obsessed themselves into nightly insomnia, they would start taking knockout drops to get to sleep—Geheimrat Klein himself was a great advocate of the stuff—and next thing they knew, they were habitués, recognizing one another by the side-effects, notably eruptions of red pimples, known as "the dueling scars of chloralomania." On Saturday nights in Göttingen, there was always sure to be at least one chloral party, or Mickifest.
It was a peculiar gathering, only intermittently, as you'd say, brisk. People were either talking wildly, often to themselves and without seeming to pause for breath, or lounging draped in pleasurable paralysis across the furniture or, as the evening went along, flat on the floor in deep narcosis.
