After a few weeks of hanging out with the grand kids in the hustle and bustle of the Atlanta suburbs over their Christmas break, I realize I'm in need of some peace and quiet. The grand kids are now back off to university and I can hear the Mountains calling my name.
More on that next time...
Fast forward 2 weeks... Just returned from a wonderful and relaxing time in the Smoky Mountains. Nothing but peace and quiet. Due to the winter weather, I saw only a couple more campers at a distance. I much prefer dispersed (free) camping as opposed to commercial camp grounds, which typically are crowded and can be somewhat noisy. So, I find a free camp ground hidden way back in the mountains on the Tellico River.
On the second day, a ranger came into my camp to say hello and to warn me to be on the look-out for bears. He told me there had been a lot of bear activity in the area.
After an awesome time in the mountains, I head back to the reality of traffic, congestion and noise pollution.
