Time in the Wilderness


Smoky Mountain Retreat

Recently my family and I took a much needed holiday in The Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Tennessee and North Carolina USA. While I have traveled there scores of times, each time awakens my senses and I see new and different things I have never seen.  We only had five days in the area and we didn't get to spend as much time on the trail as any of us would have liked but the memories we made in the park will last a life time.

"The Smoky Mountains are a composition of endless themes and variations, changing with every season, with every month, in every cove and hollow, on every summit, with ever pair of eyes thats see them."
