Cades Cove in Smoky Mountains



All 3 photographs were taken this past Tuesday at the entrance into Cades Cove in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. We had some snow the night before, but not very much.

Love the mountains, looks like just a bit of snow to make the photo that more interesting. Good job! I photographed butterflies today, how funny is that?
