Cataloochee Valley, NC

Even though the weather called for rain all day we headed for the mountains to see the last of the fall colors. After a nice lunch in Sylvia we drove to the Cataloochee Valley in the northern end of the Smokey Mountain Nat'l Park. I knew the NPS had reintroduced elk into the valley some time ago. Even with constant rain we managed to get a few pictures. We found several large flock of wild turkey and a group of about 25 elk lead by a beautiful large bull.

Greenville, SC

I'm in Greenville, SC this week visiting my brother. We've had rain most of the week but did manage to get in a ride on the harleys through the foothills on Sunday. On Monday during a break in the rain we visited downtown Greenville's Falls Park and got a few photos of this beautiful park. I'll be returning to Florida on Friday.
