still the day before the workshop. UL and LR are photos from along the Little River: Little River is a 60-mile river in Tennessee which drains a 380-square-mile area containing some of the most spectacular scenery in the southeastern United States.
LL is a beautiful floral display in Gatlinburg.

UR is along Fighting Creek Gap Road looking at Fighting Gap. (there were lots of Gaps in both NC and TN)
Middle Right was a scene along Wears Valley Road where we would also drive a lot. We are on our way to the Lodge via Wears Valley Road. The Lodge is high above Wears Valley.
