Friends in the Smokies

These images are long overdue. I have had a nightmare with my home PC. This is a good time to go on record to say this will be the last PC/Windows machine I ever see me owning. Darn viruses, just can't get rid of them. Pop ups happening all the time and I spend more time closing widows than getting work done. Rant is over for now, here are some images:

This tree is in Cades Cove and one of the most photographed trees I've seen, thanks to my friend Bill Fortney and his amazing videos on Kelby Training, now Kelby One.

Here is a "selfie" done with my camera, not my phone

Paul stopped for a photo op at our very first stop on the side of the road

And here is one of my favorites that I did with my point and shoot, Fuji X20. Keith reflected in his Tahoe.

It was an early morning, one mile hike up to Tremont Falls, but it was worth it.

The boys are happy we made it, broke out the gear and got some great pictures! It looks like Bob is welcoming us to "his place." He was our guide and did an incredible job keeping us on task and planning the trip so we would get to all the places in the short time we had.

And now some pretty shots from the trip.

There are lots more to process, and I will get to them as I have some time. This was a fun couple of days and I can't wait for our next adventure!
