For those of you who have seen the movie Inglorious Bastards, you may remember that Lt. Aldo Rain was from the Smoky Mountains. We obligded him by climbing up and down his stomping ground all day long. It was our longest day to date. I think he would be proud.
We hiked most of the day with Supermax. She worked at a maximum security prison before she came out here. She also just got out of the military where she was an Arabic linguist. We all had a tough time climbing up Rocky Top, but according to my brother Rocky Top will always be second in the SEC. However, the view from the top was definetly first class.
All in all a good day. I think we are both really looking forward to Clingmans Dome tomorrow as well as a visit to Gatlinburg.
