Next time, you'll have to plan to stay longer. :)Linda at To Behold The Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07419060763634934217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031302234429148594.post-62755792873287935722013-05-28T19:50:43.077-04:002013-05-28T19:50:43.077-04:00Hello Linda, I am a first time visitor from anothe...Hello Linda, I am a first time visitor from another blog site and enjoyed the nature photos. The yellow wildflower looks like a buttercup and the blue ones could be blue eyed grass or asiatic day flower. We took a brief trip to the Great Smokey Mtns last fall and wish we had more time.Beatrice P.

I still see a bride in the top center flower, but I can grant you some hummingbirds in the others. :)<br /><br />Gail - The Smokies had received high rainfall before we arrived, so the waterfalls were especially lovely on this trip. Give Mississippi another chance someday after they've had some rain. :)<br /><br />Stephen - Glad to have you join us on our virtual hike.<br /><br />Thanks kindly, Theresa.<br /><br />George - We really hit it perfectly for seeing the waterfalls. We missed the redbuds and most of the dogwoods, but there were enough wildflowers to satisfy us.<br /><br />Betsy - I think it did work out that way, after we had to postpone our trip twice due to illness. The Tremont area is one of our favorites, too.Linda at To Behold The Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07419060763634934217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031302234429148594.post-49097243501540596352013-05-17T11:33:01.033-04:002013-05-17T11:33:01.033-04:00Looks like you were in the Smokies at the perfect ...Looks like you were in the Smokies at the perfect time of year.
