Chasing waterfalls, 2018 style
Mother Nature sure paints a beautiful picture with waterfalls. One of our favorite things to do is take in that beauty and go chasing waterfalls, like the Dry Falls waterfall between Franklin and Highlands.
We hit a couple other waterfalls during a fall afternoon drive.

Here are some other photos of Dry Falls.
Here’s an obligatory selfie at Dry Falls.
You can walk beneath the falls. Sure, you’ll get a little mist on you, but it’s a spectacular view.

A mountain vacation, finally
The view from our balcony in Franklin is spectacular.
I’ve taken numerous trips to the mountains for work over the past year and a half. But this week was the first time in three years that my sister, my dog, and I got to make our traditional fall trip to the mountains.
We wondered what the colors would be like, since we weren’t able to get here until after peak season. I’d say we lucked up.
My sister posted a similar photo to the one above of the Great Smokey Mountains on her Facebook page, which prompted this response: “I can feel the stress leaving.”
This trip marks the first time I’ve used Airbnb. I have to give it a thumbs-up. We’ve got a cozy cottage on a mountain in Franklin and the hosts/owners are great.
