Today we had a leisure breakfast at TC's. I played my fiddle, I should say practiced on the stoop in the warm sunshine all morning. Then it was off to Pocket Loop at Pigeon Mountain. Most people are probably not familiar with the Pocket Loop as you have to take a dirt road past a few residential/farm type houses. There is a partially built boardwalk and the rest is mountain trail up to the falls. We had our "Flowers of the Smokey Mountains" book with us and identified a lot of plants. We spent the afternoon throwing rocks in the creek, catching salamanders (and letting them go) and playing with a huge millipede. All in all, a great day.
On the way home, we made another attempt at the incline railway on Lookout Mountain (http://www.lookoutmountain.com/) and this time we did it. Channel 46 from Atlanta was there and filmed us. Hopefully, someday it will be available on line.
