It's been a long day, but a good one.

We left early this morning for Cades Cove in the national park. The boys (and Dave) were on a bear hunt. This is their favorite part of the Smokies: driving around the cove and looking for bears. Must be a guy thing.

We did see a lot of wildlife. A lot of deer, including a ten-point buck and a few fawns, some wild turkeys, a baby bear, a lizard, and more deer.

The weird thing was...I might have booked a wine tasting! We ran into a couple who used to live in the Chicago burbs, not too far from where we live. They have family that still live there, and they are going to give my information to them as they like wine and having direct selling parties. What a small world!

Anyway, enough of the small talk....on to the pictures of the day.
