John Oliver Place IV
Sepia Toned of a previous…Morning sun filters through the trees at John Olivers Cabin with a few dogwoods in the background…..The Oliver’s bought land in the Cove in 1826 and this cabin site remained in the family until the Park was established. The house is typical of many found on the eastern frontier in the mid-1850s, and reflects the skills and techniques brought into the mountains by descendants of British and European immigrants…..Split-rail fences require much more timber than other types of fences, and so are not common in areas where wood is scarce or expensive. However, they are very simple in their construction, and can be assembled with few tools even on hard or rocky ground. They also can be built without using any nails or other hardware; such hardware was often scarce in frontier locations.These fences are sometimes refered to as Worm Fence due to the back and forth placements…This cabin is located on the Cades Cove Loop Road, in the Great Smoky Mountain N.P.

great shot Gary. My wife and I were just there last week, there were millions of locust that had hatched from the ground, making all sorts of chirping sounds….the ranger said it happens every 13 years, they come from under the ground. My wife made several pictures of those locust….quite stunning, red-eyes and large wings.

I love to sit on the porch and just imagine what life must have been like….such simpler times, but good times. I imagine kids running around outside playing tag, you’re it,,,duck, duck goose….using their imaginations…not glued to a TV,video or computer game, or an mp3 player. The smell of the woodstove, cooking a home made apple pie, or a pot of chicken and dumplins, while the mom hummmed hyms to herself as she waltzed around the kitchen…......Nice, happy thoughts,....Ahhh, the good ole days!!!! Beautiful Image, Gary!!!!
