Blooms and a Bear

The beautiful Mountain Laurel was everywhere in the park, and is still is but fading fast.  Now if the rodo's would appear all of a sudden for my friends who are coming up this weekend that would be great!  Not likely, though I have seen some stray rodo's blooming already and if you've seen any around the GSMNP let me know.  The young bear was just off one of the busiest trails in the park about 50' up a cherry tree and undisturbed by the visitors who were nearby taking pictures and admiring this "gift".
