lunch

GO KEWPEE!

Today we drove all the way up to Lima for lunch at Kewpee.

Just took us over 3 hours round trip for a hamburger but it was a fun trip.

It was kinda weird to see a naked baby doll on the top of the restaurant but we forgot all about it after we got to eat the food.  I have to tell you it's not a three star burger but it was very yummy for my tummy.

I ordered a cheese burger and a slice of Strawberry rhubarb pie.  It was heaven!

So many varieties of pies.  It was a tough choice that I had to make.  But it was the right one indeed.

I wish I can go back there next week but I guess we will just have to save it for a special lunch trip in the future.  Hope you can find one near you.  I'm sure it will be a fun experience!

Great Smoky Mountains - Cades Cove V

 BEARS!!!!!!!

YES! Finally!  

I guess the Forth time visits to G.S.M. was a charm.

We were driving on the trail road with everyone else and we actually  saw three at once!  What a sight!  They did cause a traffic jam (Bear Jam) on the road as everyone stopped to look.

We thought the bear is a mythical animal in the Great Smokys as we had never seen them.

It's real!  We also saw another one cross in front of our car on the The Roaring Fork Motor Nature Trail that one surprised us an I'm glad we were in the car.

We never saw that many animals in the Mountains not even rabbit or squirrel.

We see more of them in our back yard at home.  We did get lucky this trip.

I'm so glad I had my good telephoto zoom lens with me this time or they would have been just a tiny spot in the picture .
Hope we can go back and see them again  .....  still from a distance :-)
