I took this picture along Hillendale road on the way to Lake Tansi, Tennessee. The views from this road are spectacular. I also found out the hard way that all of those horse fences are electrified, lol
Thinking of warmer days today... I took this picture back in July of this past year at the Lost Creek Falls and Cave state natural area in Sparta, Tennessee. It was sunny and 97 degrees that day. Hoever, standing near the falls, it was in the 50s due to the cold cave air blasting out of every opening in the mountain. The drastic difference in temperatures caused a thick mist to form, which reflected the blue sky above peeking through openings in the tree canopy. Loads of moisture from the falls and underground rovers and falls caused a lush emerald carpet of moss to grow on everything. In front of the falls, there is a sea of mossy slippery boulders and rocks and just one large sycamore tree. It's truly a magical place.
This is a 3 image panoramic stitch of the sunset at Lums pond state park in Bear, Delaware.
I took this in Wilmington Delaware along the Christina river. That's my sister on the left, looking towards the city skyline
Taken at Rittenhouse Park in Newark, Delaware
Took this picture back in October at my favorite spot at Rittenhouse Park in Newark Delaware. The late afternoon sun bathed everything in a red glow
Taken with my cell phone while looking out into the forest from inside of the cave behind Big Laurel Falls at the Virgin Falls state natural area in Sparta, Tennessee. Normally there is a steady torrent of water rushing over these Falls but due to the extreme drought All Summer Long there was barely a trickle of water. There was enough however to refill our bottles on the way to the main Falls and back. If you are a serious hiker and you have at least one full day preferably two to three to spare, make sure you visit this location. It is amazing
