It makes a good get-away when you can honestly tell people back home that you are not reachable !

I usually check in with my sister when ever I pass thru Robbinsville, cause I know it's about my only chance.

Little to no service on the Skyway. I start losing service as I approach the entrance on the Tennessee side, and don't regain service until I get close to 129 in North Carolina.
