My home for the night in Maggie Valley. Total with tax was under $40

The next morning was off to a gloomy start and the forecast called for cold and wet all day.

I don't get much vacation so I wasn't going to waste it sitting in a motel room. I headed North to pick up 209 to Hot Springs.

I have always considered 209 to be a great road. This local is business is trying to hype it so he can sell more T-shirt, just like the Dragon, Snake, Mooshiner 28 and countless other roads. I really don't buy in to the whole idea of giving a road a silly name to provide the tourists with more hype, but it has become a fact of life around here.

So, this is the first of of the snakes in the title of this RR.

Trying to capture the color. What I really need is some bright sunshine

A few pics of hot Springs.
