Abrams Falls


The beautiful Smoky Mountains really are beautiful and smoky.  :)


We spent an afternoon driving the Cades Cove Loop, admiring all the beauty, and decided to conquer a pretty tough hike. (considering we are including a four year old and a mama that is not in the best shape!)



Camel Backs- check!               Snacks- Check!



We saw this HUGE Daddy Long-Leg strutting his stuff along a rock.


On this hike, there are 3 super cool suspension bridges.



We made the falls in less than 2 hours!  WHOO HOO!



We sat and ate a snack, drank some water and tried catching tadpoles. :)



It's one thing to see these little guys in an aquarium in Pet Smart, but it is a whole other level of excitement, when you catch one in the Smoky Mountain's waterfalls!!!



This was a neat lizard, doing his best to hide.



Well, Parker hung in there until the very end!  Way to go little man. :)




Blessings,
Steph

  1. Now that's what I call a waterfall, the last one was more of a water trickle.
