Sparks Lane Morning
Sparks Lane, Cades Cove, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, USA
Everytime I look at this image, I get a homesick feeling for the the Great Smoky Mountains of Eastern Tennessee. While I was there, I wished I never had to leave. Much like the words of the song “Country Roads” by John Denver. It truly is “almost heaven”. The whole time I was in the area I was reflecting back to another life many years ago, the way it must of been. “Life is old there,
Older than the trees…Country Roads, take me home, to the place I belong.

About Cades Cove:
Cades Cove (formally known as Tuckaleechee Cove) is found in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee, USA. Cades Cove
was a working farm valley until the 1930’s when the National Park was formed. The Park Service has attempted to recreate the 19th century feel of this farming valley and preserve it for future generations.
Before the first white settler arrived on the scene, Cades Cove had been a part of the Cherokee Indians’ domain. Abrams Creek and Abrams Falls are features named for a prominent Cherokee chief named “Old Abram” who at one time lived in a village at Chilhowee on the Little Tennessee River. According to tradition, Old Abram’s wife was named Kate, and Cades (Kate’s) Cove was named after her.
