Homes in Gatlinburg and property sales across the area, often mimic the activity of our local festivals. It will be interesting to see if Smoky Mountain real estate increases in property sales as we progress into fall. It seems that most of the world has been resting from one of the hottest summers on record. Temperatures in East Tennessee have only recently declined from their record heat. This temperature easing coincided with the beginning of another school year. The resumption of school sessions reminds us that autumn is only weeks away. These mountains of East Tennessee are a center of local festivals and community activities that really pick up momentum as the year moves into fall. With the weather cooling to a more universally accepted range of temperature, people seem to venture out of air conditioned comfort and explore this area in greater numbers. The beauty of this area seems enhanced, when crossing a parking lot no longer feels like a trek across a recent Hawaiian lava flow.
