Great Smoky Mountains National Park



Taking you on a tour through the park...
So GREEN!!






Appalachian Trail


Prounouce that apa-LACH-uhn,
not apa-lay-shun
if you live here...
.

Now we can say we've hiked on the trail of all trails - I would love to do more of it.



See why it's called Smoky?
.
(I also learned that Smokey with an E is only a bear or the police.)










We were there a day after a full night of heavy rain so were blessed with dozens of waterfalls along the road.





The southern end of the main park road is on the Cherokee Reservation in North Carolina.
Interesting looking written Cherokee language...
