Just as the last bits of musical instruments and other stuff were cleared from the fabulous new TTouch studio, we got notice from the buildings' owner that we have 60 days to relocate! They're going to demolish the building. Wow. Gianna Violins (our primary small business) has been there nearly 8 of our 10 years in business. It's sort of like leaving an old home. The building was built in the 1930's (before the river was dammed) as a service station/convenience store & grill with residence downstairs, It was at that time, a short drive down the Cloyd's creek to the Tennessee River, now of course, the 'river' is right out our back door and known as Ft. Loudon Lake. Our upstairs space has really nifty hardwood, tongue & groove floors and fabulous old style, solid wood framed front doors. We're hoping we can keep the doors and put them in our home. They're really nostalgic and nifty. Other than that, the building is on its last legs. We're in awe that GV has actually stayed there that long. LOL The time flew by!
ETT and GV (East Tennessee TTouch & Gianna Violins) will be moving to Lenoir City in the coming weeks. Clients and customers will be seen by appointment only in the new location. The address will not be published. The location is absolutely lovely and ideal for working with TTouch clients and their animals. It's set in the middle of 15 fenced and private acres with generous woods. No traffic. No distractions. Quiet. It's a doggie heaven! It's quite a bit easier to find than our backwater Friendsville place and a good deal closer to most of the immediate surrounding planet inhabitants.
Early November rings in the Great Smoky Mountain Cluster, a huge AKC dog show event for the entire East Tennessee region. If you come out to the dog show, find me at the East Tennessee TTouch booth near the 'best in show' arena in the Jacob Building. November 3rd thru 6th are the show dates.
