mountaintops

Tomorrow I am hiking Mt LeConte and spending the night at LeConte Lodge on top of the mountain. I can't wait...we have had these reservations since January and the excitement has been building since then.

I do wish I was a little more prepared for the 6.5 mile hike up the highest mountain in the Smokies, but I'm taking lots of Advil and focusing on the meal and bottomless glass of wine that awaits me at the top. I can do anything for the promise of a good dinner.

Plus this is the view from LeConte, and I plan on watching the sun set and rise. Also well worth The Climb (there's my theme song for the trip...thanks Miley!).


Now I'm just praying the rain clears out...
