Thanks Brian, I understand about not giving out their info without asking them. I truly do. I am really hoping to make some friends this way and be able to pick up quicker on my ASL. I can remember since I was an early teen how much I wanted to learn it, but at the time, didn't have the capacity to, do to a long story. Anyway, now that I can learn it, I am and hopefully I will be of great use to the community and make new friends along the way. Yes, I know where Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, & Gatlinburg are. I'm in that very area. LOL, LOL.
Glad to have met you. I really enjoy visiting here!
Best to you!
Warm hugs!

Have you heard of a deaf gathering held in the "Old City" section of downtown Knoxville? Their website address is: Knoxville Deaf Network.org - for some reason the website is partly censored here.
I grew up in the Knoxville area (Loudon County, where most of my family still live). I attended TSD as a day student though I haven't been back to TSD the time I graduated from there (in the 1990s).
My mother and her husband (my step-father) recently went to Sevier County (S'ville/GB/PF) last Friday with their friends and stayed there for the week-end. They really enjoyed it very much away. |
