Haystack II
This look into the past is preserved at the Mountain Farm Museum in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. This park is different in many ways from a lot of the other National Parks in the US. It is one of the 1st to have the land bought soley form logging companies and individuals. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 1200 familys were displaced in the early 1920’s and 30’s when they sold their land for the purpose of a National Park. The park service also desided they wanted to preserve the way of life of these early pioneers. Throughout the park old structures have been preserved. Here at the Mountain Farm Museum and at the Cades Cove Visitors Center are 2 places where a whole farm was preserved. The only building here that was originally here though, is the barn, the other structures were moved from various places in the park to here. Another note of the parks uniqueness is they is no charge for entering due to an agreement with the states of Tennessee and North Carolina

Our History is amazing….to think of. We are blessed to live in this State..in my humble opinion!!! I would not live anywhere else….... I have loved Tn. all of my life, although raised in Mich. But born here, and could NEVER get it out of me! All of my childhood, I dreamed of coming back. And when I was of age… and then, it was 21, I drove all the way… by myself….and landed on my grandmothers door step. The rest is history.
As always…...thanks for these magnificent images…of our great State!! xx
