<< Anything of interest (blacksmithing-wise) to see in the Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg Tennessee area? This is a family vacation trip, so if I can escape (unscathed) for a very short time, it would have to be pretty close by. >> Arrowmont school comes to mind, they don't always have blacksmithing classes, but ocassionally do. Also, there is a smith at Dollywood. Jerry V
