Weekend Getaway

Terry and I spent this past weekend at a cabin near Gatlinburg. Terry's parents kept the kids in Knoxville, so we didn't have to worry about the subtitle on this sign when we hiked to Charlie's Bunion.

I don't know who Charlie was, but apparently he had some pretty bumpy feet.

We also hiked to a spot called "The Jump Off." I was tempted, but Terry talked me out of it.

You could see Mt. LeConte from both the Bunion and the Jump-Off. Mt. LeConte is the second highest peak in Tennessee and infamous for the hike we took there without a trail in 1992.

All in all, we hiked for about 10 miles.
