February in Cades Cove...

Been working pretty hard lately, lot on my plate, but yesterday the wife and I took the day off an headed to the "Cove". This is about the only time of year I go into the Cove, and as luck would have it, it was pretty empty.

Pretty good day. Found a shed, stumbled across a hog trap, while bust'in through a canebrake, then sat down on a creek bed and watched some deer. Never saw a soul, best time of year in the "Cove".

Much quieter than mid-June to mid-August...

My late father-in-law really enjoyed a drive through there just to see deer.

Did not really have much for weather this year to go visit the Cove, but did get some nice pics of deer last year out there. Looks like you got some nicer weather later in the week.

I was very disappointed I was not able to meet with you and the folks for dinner. The obligations I had this year, I WON'T have next year. Hope to see you then.

Yes, the weather was beautiful, yesterday it was 15 and snowing, so I guess we timed it right!
