Clingman's Dome, the Heart of the Smokies

 I have a soft spot for flowers, no idea why. I love to get shots of them whenever I can. I never know what they are called but so what? I just like looking at them because they come in such a wide variety of shapes and colors.

  The trees on the side of the mountain are very cool looking. I have no idea why so many are dead. Perhaps a fire or something killed them.


More trees!

More flowers!

 Did I mention that I have a soft spot for flowers? Actually, it might have been that I was just pooped from hiking up the !#$%*&! trail!
