Look dad, i told you, the hat looks better on me :D
What can I say the girl knows good music when she hears it :D Ray Charles moment. Yeah Baby!
and last but not least, a big ol kiss for ya, MUAH!!!!!!!!!!
The engine that I will one day have, oh yes, :D
The car that I will one day have! And might I say the most impressive one there :D
My dream car! 
This is the real coal train. I almost died from breathing in all the smoke but it was a fun ride.
This is dolly's church from in the mountains. They picked it up and brought it here. They did it to her home too. 
This eagle was sleeping and when I walked up he woke up and looked straight at me. It was insane!
Here is her one room school house. 
These kids were all younger than me and had voices that were amazing. They changed their singing voices to sing songs from back in the day till now telling about how country music started and how it has become what it is today. The guy on the far right came down off stage adn asked me to dance with him. I did, but was red the whole time. 
Kingdom Heirs, they are a gospel; group that regularly performs at Dollywood. 
Glass Blowing, but not really cause it was sunday. It is just the furnace they heat the glass in
Guess what this is, oh, another grist mill!
The sign says, Bob was here! I had too. this is the old house and to the right you cant see it yet is a grist mill and barn. Those of you who find the humor in that understand me. Something to do with an old saying, but I dont remember it. I was still pretty psyched. 
Their were deer everywhere. They must have known they were safe because they didnt even flinch with people all around them. It was great to see.
Beautiful waters,
These are the falls I climbed the massive mountain for, They were gorgeous but still! DANG!
The water was so clear, I just wanted to jump in. But then I stuck my toe in it and quickly changed my mind. It must have only been like 20 or 30 degrees. 
and yet another one, this is when I was headed back down the mountain. As you can tell the sun had definitely moved directions, cause it was like 4 hours later :D
Oh OH! I finally figured out how to make the timer work, kindof. If you notice there is no smile cause I was really tired of holding it at that point :D
Yeah, this was only one little section of teh madness that I climbed to get to the falls.
Looking straight up
This is the beginning of the place I went to. It is called Cade's Cove.
This is a gorgeous methodist church. They still marry people here but you have to be a part of the family that once lived and worked in the mountains.
This is the Baptist church. A van full of old people pulled up when I got there. They all got out and mosied up to the building. I was curious so I stuck around a little. They had a great service and then sang till their hearts were content. It was amazing!!!! Later I found out that all the old people were people who had grown up in these mountains.
You could tell where the water was. The leaves were only really changing around it. The park Ranger said that because of the drought it is taking everything a lot longer to change.
