John-Boy might not be there, but youll still get a taste of Appalachian Christmas cheer with a visit to Cumberland Gap National Historical Park this coming Saturday.
Each year, deep in Appalachia, the holiday season is ushered in as Christmas-red cardinals decorate snow-covered hemlocks. Icicles become natures diamonds frosting rocky mountainsides. The brisk air makes ones skin tingle. Christmas bells treat ears to a medley of jingles. And at Cumberland Gap National Historical Parks “Taste of Christmas Past” children of all ages will thrill in the magic of mountain holidays of old.
