Cades Cove

After a brief stop for a picnic, we headed to Cades Cove.


A cove is sort of a flat area between mountains.
This area is rich with history and wildlife.


For over a century hundreds of people lived in this region.


We didn't stop at many of the buildings because it was rainy.
We visited this church and it's cemetery before it started raining.


This cemetery had some very old graves.


This fellow fought in the Revolutionary War and lived.
He was one of many who fought for the freedoms we have today. 


Another beautiful sight.
