After leaving the mountains we stopped at a store to buy some firewood. Found out the man who owned the store retired from Frito Lay in Goshen, Indiana two years ago and bought this store. He specializes in stocking cabins with groceries for $24.99 per shopping trip. He has people that go shopping at a variety of stores and buys whatever you want and puts it away into your cupboards or refrigerator before you arrive, He has five delivery trucks that keep busy doing this and also runs a store housed in a log cabin with a 2800 square foot house above the store. I ask how the heck he wound up in Townsend, Tennessee from Goshen, Indiana. He said when others have ask him the same question he asks them to turn around and look up. The view you see is the Smokey Mountains similar to some of our pictures below. We bought fire wood for one camp fire and he basically loaded our truck up. He said he was giving us the Indiana Special.
PS. Gabe we enjoyed Hold On by the Alabama Shakers.
Here are the pictures from our mountain drive through the Smokies today. It was overcast all day but still a very nice day.
It's hard to tell it but the two black spots are two bears up in the tree. The mother bear is the one higher up but she came down first.
Momma's down
Baby is on his way down
These pictures are from later that night when we were roasting hot dogs over the camp fire. It got down into the 50's by the time these pictures were taken. Tanner is in one of the chairs between two blankets where he stayed for two hours.
Notice how there are four chairs and we aren't expecting company. No, our dogs aren't spoiled or anything.
These picture are taken of a flower we have on the picnic table that has four solar birds in it that light up at night. I didn't use the flash so the only things you see are the things that light up.
