This is looking up the hill from in front of Jim Bale’s cabin, as the fog is lifting. Unlike the cabin theses are Jim Bale’s. This is an example of early Appalachian buildings. It’s also an example of the rocky ground some people had to make ends meet on. They lived a hard life but they didn’t have to worry about a lot of the crime and terrorism we face. They were a rough, proud people that shaped this country. They made do with what they had and lived by basic principles. A lot of these principles seemed lost today. This is located on the Roaring Fork Nature Trail in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park.See my Jim Bale’s Place image for more on this farm. sepia tones can be adjusted upon request

Dawn with mist rising from the Roaring Fork. The sun is just beginning to peek thru the trees. This is Jim Bale’s Place and typical of 1800’s Appalachia. To the top right of the split rail fence is the remains of the rock wall. These structures have been preserved by the N.P. service.For more on this place see my “Jim Bale’s Place” / This is located on the Roaring Fork Nature Trail in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park.

James McCaulley rented The Tipton Place till he could get his own place.While renting he built the blacksmith shop. It is located on the Cades Cove Loop Rd.,in the Great Smoky Mountains NP. Iron was an important material in pioneer life. From under the blacksmiths hammer came the tools of life: axes, adzes, drawknives and froes; bolts and bits, chains and hooks; the bull tongue plow and the wagon tire. He made and repaired the bits and pieces that cut, dug, hung, dragged, bore through, or held together most everything else.
River and I drove for a couple of hours before dawn and got to a spot up on a little hill in the woods, kind of feeling “freezing to death”, so we thought we’d wake up the sun and this is when…. Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Nature Canada
