Our vacation home, Moosehead Lodge. The folks at Great Smokys Cabin Rentals give old fashioned service!

My husband and I had been to Bryson City before, but I’d never noticed this tree or the dedication.

The view from our deck, and that’s where our hot tub was, too.

A small community, Bryson City reminds me of Cuba City, the small town I grew up in. We even had a train that went through town every day.

Three moose in our kitchen window. I fell in love with them, but couldn’t find one anywhere to bring home.

It was Railfest Weekend in Bryson City. Tour the countryside, first class, in a restored train on a beautiful afternoon.
