Recent Trip to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park: Part 1

Tennessee is truly a beautiful state with diverse landscape. I remember as a kid, the Davy Crockett TV show. The Show's theme song began... "Born on a mountain top in Tennessee, the greenest state in the land of the free." That certainly is the truth by my experience. Tennessee has a whole lot of green throughout the spring and summer, but fall is a beautiful time in the Smoky Mountains.

We recently traveled there to catch the fall colors, and we got more than we bargained for. We also got some snow.


This is Cade's Cove and you can see the snow dusting on the surrounding mountains.

The mountain Streams are beautiful


Still the green persists...


The fall colors were great, even with the over cast conditions

Here are a few images to enjoy. I love being able to share my travel adventures with photos. There will be more to follow, and future trips at different times of the year.
