On Sunday we drove down to Great Smoky Mountain National Park. We hiked out to a waterfall where I found this snail, about the size of your thumb. The orange stickers are warning signs since some folks have tried climbing, slipped and then died when they fell. No one paid these signs the least bit of attention which we found a bit surprising.

Much of the road through the park traveled alongside this pretty stream. Nearly every pullout had a car and below in the stream would be folks with big rubber inner-tubes.

We took the drive out to Cades Cove which included some lovely scenery, several old churches and some other old buildings where folks had lived and farmed.
