Shots of the Day: Wandering Around the Smokies 🔗

Not a lot of great shots today. I did some hiking in the Smokies but spent most of the time in bumper-to-bumper traffic. Great Smoky Mountain National Park is the most visited National Park in the U.S., and even at this "low volume" time, there were far too many people for my tastes. As I tried to flee all the traffic, I was reminded of my visit to Canyonlands National Park this past December, when I had the *entire National Park* all to myself. It was wonderful.

That doesn't happen in the Smokies.

The following peaceful scenes don't capture the droning sound of hundreds of motorcycles zooming down the road, the loud noise billowing through the valleys. (There must have been some kind of motorcycle festival going on.)
