The Oconaluftee bottomlands were first settled by
European/Americans in the 1790's, just below Rattlesnake Mountain, seen in the distant mist. This exhibit of a mountain farm consists of reconstructed log structures brought in to give visitors a sense of what it was like to live as early Appalachian homesteaders.

Beautiful shot of this log house with a lovely feel of history.
ReplyDeleteI suppose they were glad to have the smallest cabin as protection from the winters. I really like your shot with the misty look obscuring the distant items. Well done.
ReplyDeleteLovely place to actually live in eh Doug? :)
