What a great day with my buddy Gerald, who drove up from Tampa while on his hunting vacation to spend the day with me here in Townsend!

We rode through Cades Cove, took Parsons Branch Road out to the Tail of the Dragon, and enjoyed a wonderful lunch at the Tapoco Lodge in Graham County, North Carolina. Afterward, we cruised back along the Foothills Parkway to Big Meadow Campground.

All in all, it was about seven hours of trail riding, sightseeing, mountain streams, winding rivers, good food, and even better conversation. Days like this are what a trip to the Smoky Mountains is all about!

While enjoying our trip through the Tennessee mountains and making our way north toward Pennsylvania, we stopped at Iron Mountain Sporting Clays in Kodak. We had a great time shooting sporting clays, and I finally got to try out a new Benelli shotgun. That sweet gun has officially earned a spot on my Christmas list!

Sailor was right at home exploring the cool mountain stream today in the Great Smoky Mountains. Watching him splash through the water and enjoy every moment made an already beautiful evening even more special. A big thank you to a fellow Jeeper for helping take the photos and capture these memories for us. It was truly a wonderful evening that Sailor and I will never forget.

Sailor and I spent the day chasing waterfalls and following mountain streams through Tremont. Just a man, his best buddy, and another beautiful Smoky Mountain adventure!
