Turkey and deer and bears...oh my!!

Day two of our Smoky Mountain Agora dawned clear and cool.  Due to snow and ice, the main road through the park was closed so we switched our itinerary and did a short 1.3 mile hike to Laurel Falls.  Along the way we witnessed some beautiful mountain scenery.

After the hike to Laurel Falls we travelled to Cade's Cove where we visited several old homestead sites and a small "town" with a blacksmith and a grist mill.  Also in the cove we saw several turkey, a bunch of deer and black bear and 2 cubs.

After a dinner at The Hard Rock Café in Pigeon Forge we travelled to Gatlinburg for a ghost tour with Gabriella.
