Great Smoky Mountains National Park stretches between North Carolina and Tennessee. I been visiting the Smoky Mounatins since I was a kid and there is always something new to see and explore.
This beautiful, mountainous landscape encompasses lush forests and wildflowers that bloom year-round.
Streams, rivers and waterfalls appear along hiking routes that include a segment of the Appalachian Trail.
There are several vista points offering scenic views of the mist-covered mountains.
Explore the quirky adventures and misadventures as I take you on a journey of the United States National Parks. These journeys inspired me to explore even more about the history of the United States, the good, the bad and the ugly. These journeys are encouragements to explore, or re-examine these beautiful lands. From mountain roads with hairpin turns to stunning seaside escapes to exploring good old American history, these areamazing journeys to take in this lifetime.
