Mid-Week Update from the Mountains

Today we went to Chimney Tops for our picnic and took Ms. Melba Oakley up with us. We met her last year, through moma and daddy. Her husband & his brother are some of the "founders" of the Gatlinburg area. We enjoyed meeting her and picnicking with her. These are a few pictures from today, and the above is a view from the "Homestead" village where the cabin is located in Wears Valley. Glenn, Brandy and I went hiking tonight in the neighborhood and hiked up steep hills for over an hour and half. I will post those pictures later. Enjoy the pictures below from today and most from yesterday at Dollywood.
