It was a PERFECT Day Trip (January 19, 2015---11 days after my surgery) ---and I thanked George over and over for choosing Cades Cove... I loved every single minute of my day there. Today, I'll share a few pictures with you from my special day.
When we got into the 'cove'---we stopped and George took a panorama of this beautiful area.
We stopped at the Primitive Baptist Church in Cades Cove and walked around the church and cemetery... It was the farthest I had walked since surgery--and I did well....
It was a beautiful winter day with temperatures in the 50's... It felt so good just being in the Smokies!!!!
I took this picture of George as we walked around the cemetery at the Primitive Baptist Church.

I'll close showing you two very happy waterfall-lovers on the road to Cades Cove, Jan. 19, 2015.
Hope you enjoyed our pictures from Cades Cove... (My good news NOW is that my leg/knee are finally doing GREAT --and I've been able to even do some hiking recently.)
Hope you have a fantastic EASTER... We certainly did... Alleluia--Christ is Risen!
Hugs,

That was the perfect trip for you.Great scenery.
I love the photo of the church! I expect to see Ma, Pa, Mary and Laura coming out the door! A perfect first outing for you.

That was a perfect place to "test" out the knee. Great pictures. I love Cades Cove. Sometime I would like to go there when it isn't so crowded. Hope you had a very blessed Easter.
glad you knee is better. Beautiful shot as always!
So glad you've recovered from that knee surgery. We'll always remember our day in Cade's Cove two years ago. Peaceful place.
These places and pictures are magnificent. Thanks for sharing them with us. Happy Easter Monday.
L:ovely area. I had fluid taken of my knee and cortisone Friday.
Amazing how good it feels to get outside when you have been trapped in! So glad that knee is better!
Looks like you are getting around very well, Betsy...beautiful mountain pictures.
Wonderful. I haven't been to Cades Cove in many years. It's beautiful. Looks like you had a great time.
Hi Betsy!
I had time to go "blog-tripping" today. Glad to hear your surgery was a success. It sounds like you're almost back to full strength. It would take a lot to bring you down! Hope you had a wonderful Easter.
hugs,
Kelly
You do indeed look happy and you should! What a lovely place to try out that knee!
I think we had a perfect day to visit Cades Cove. I'm glad that you enjoyed that trip and I'm very happy we're hiking again.
Wonderful!! I am so happy for you and so glad the surgery went well! You look terrific! Such a beautiful place!! Thanks for sharing the beauty and the great news,
Betsy!! Enjoy a beautiful week!!
I can imagine how good it felt to get outside. Someday, I might get to see the area in person. Meanwhile, I am thoroughly enjoying your pictures. Thank you.
Betsy, George took some terrific photos in Cades Cove. You sure had a beautiful day for your first post-surgery outing. Sounds like you made good progress in short order. Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
I love the last picture of the two of you! And the sweet little church and the beautiful mountains. But best of all, you are alright now and can walk and hike! YEAH!! Your Betsy signature is REALLY sparkling!
Great to see you had a successful surgery. Continue healing so that you may find more beauty in your world to share with us who could only wish we were there. Regards to George.
Worth a Thousand Words
Lovely pictures of the Cove and of you and George. I just love seeing the happiness on both of your faces. That you are in love is very evident.
Blessings,
Betsy
So glad to see you out and about and hiking. Go, Betsy! Always enjoy your beautiful pictures.
Such beauty!! Thanks for sharing.
Looked like a perfect day and love all the photos. : )
You certainly had a perfect day to be out there. I am most happy to hear that the knee is doing so much better.
Hope you and George had a wonderful Easter Betsy. So glad your knee has healed so well and you are on the "hiking trail" again.
Blessings

Looks like a fabulous trip! What great shots of those blue skies.
That's a happy smile! Congrats on your recovery from your knee surgery and that you're back to doing most of what you love :-) The views are fantastic, it sounds like a great trip.
I love the look of Cades Cove. You had some beautiful weather and your photos are fabulous. Glad to hear your knee is feeling a whole lot better.
I am so Betsy you are back in business again. I know how much getting back in the swing of things means to you. Your countryside photos are beautiful. Knee surgery seems to get everyone down for awhile. I've had several friends go through the surgery and they were so happy when they could walk on their own again.
Good luck with the new wheel!!!! At our age we need to enjoy as much as we can. Beautiful pictures.
Wow, glad you recovered quickly after knee surgery. Exposure to a little bit of Sunshine is good for health.
Thanks for this beautiful post and nice pictures !
Have a fabulous week ahead :)

Hi Betsy, the header pic on my blog is our Tulips right outside our front door. Thanks for enjoying them.
