Little River in Blount County, TN near my home in Walland. A gray, snowy afternoon. I stopped to take this photo on my drive to Walland Center to fill the tank with gas.
Small waterfall along Old Walland Highway on Friday afternoon 1/29/10. I stopped to take this shot out of cabin fever and boredom being indoors all day.
My first shotgun. Charles Daly 12 gauge pump action. All weather gun. Nickel plated. 18.5 " barrel. A thing of beauty. One of the main purposes for the trip which featured a stop by Benton Shooters Supply in Benton, TN. It is the best. I had to make a 2nd trip on Monday because the state wasn't open on Sat. to do background checks on account of the weather. Tennessee really is patron saint of shooting stuff.**Add to that** Doublecabin's blessing of "Praise the Ford and pass the ammuntion". LMBO

Kenny starting back across the creek and up from Benton Falls. Trying to get a good photo today with snow, sleet, and mist from the falls was unreal, but we were the only persons here!
