The picture was taken on December 25, 2010 when Chattanooga got its first Christmas Day snow fall in 41 years. I don&#8217;t expect to see scenes like that again though I am returning to the Queen for Christmas 2012. Once the holiday is past, I&#8217;ll be driving a little Dixie Highway and spending a little time in Atlanta, Georgia. I&#8217;m now on the way and spent last night in LaFollette, Tennessee. The short journal for that first day&#8217;s drive is <a title=\"Christmas Escape Repeat Day 1\" href=\"http:\/\/www.dennygibson.com\/cer2012\/day01\/\">here<\/a> with the overview of the trip <a title=\"Christmas Escape Repeat\" href=\"http:\/\/www.dennygibson.com\/cer2012\/\">here<\/a>. As usual, daily journals will be posted as the trip progresses.
