Cades Cove, Tennessee Mid Spring

Boneman...now I'm back on track with a Spring picture...you can take your coat off. This is my final picture of the three from Cades Cove. As you look at the post of the Cabin, this was taken from the side yard looking out to the West. My purpose for posting the three was to give some perspective to the beautiful views from this settler's humble home. 360 degrees...you see the crown of the mountains holding the Cove...protecting the Cove. I have been here many times, during all four Seasons and often I see literally tens of dozens of deer and often times black bear in this melting pot of nature and man ...co-existing...for each others benefit.

This particular vist to the Cove was in early May. The leaves had become large enough to begin renewing the lifeblood to the trees for another season. The meadows still wore their light, Spring green, soon to turn to the deep greens of Summer. A beautiful start for the rebirth of wildlife, plants and the heart after weathering the harsh greys and whites of Winter.
