A beautiful day in the Smokies







We got an early start this morning to get to Clingman's Dome before it got too crowded. We were successful. Took the .5 mi trek to the top and the observation deck. WOW!! what a sight. Even walked for a bit on the Appalachian Trail so we can say we did it. By the time we left the parking lot was full and we enjoyed a leisurely drive down the mountain. The rest of the day was spent touring though the crafters area of Gatlinburg, eating a small lunch, and going back to The Christmas shop for a few little things. Back to the room for a nap and then figure out what to do for dinner. Tomorrow morning it's off to the Blue Ridge Parkway.
