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?

    When I look at your photos - it makes me wish my log cabin was in the mountains! ...But still keeping my little lake of course. :-)

    These are beautiful! I can't believe that I've never been to the Smokey mountains considering I'm not terribly far away. Will have to put it on my vacation list! Looks so lovely!
