Smoky Mountains
Smoky Mountain National Park is beautiful in January too! Our drive over Newfound Gap Road offered vistas of cold, blue mountains and snowbanks on its summit. Most roads are blocked in winter, but hikers & bikers still appeared. The rhododendron, mountain laurel, and dogwood are waiting to wake to springtime splendor. It is said that no other place this size in a temperate climate boasts such diversity of plant and animal life. We have seen the Park in summer and winter; now I look forward to seeing it in the spring.
