Tellico TN
Bald River Falls (I like the name!).
Several weekends ago, I went on a little fishing trip with some guys from my church small group, Scott S, Scott W, Bill, and Aaron. Aaron’s aunt was generous to let us stay at her cozy cabin in Tellico TN.
Friday night we grilled steaks. Then we played a wide-open game of Monopoly – a sort of an anything goes Monopoly. There were alliances, immunity from paying rent, shared profits, and temporary holding property for a business partner in financial trouble, among other things. Very strange, but fun nonetheless. Bill laid low most of the game, initially working the railroads of all things, but somehow, he persevered and won! Go Bill!
Aaron was the true fisherman. He had the necessary skills and experience, plus he was also willing to get up at 4:30 AM to secure a good spot along the river and catch’em at daybreak! He did very well, catching numerous beautiful rainbow trout for our lunch. The rest of us slept in, so we really did not deserve to eat the fish Aaron caught! The trout marinated in sauce comprised of sherry, soy sauce, oil, and Cajun spices, while we were fishing mid-morning, except for Scott S, he went ATV'n. The fish were not biting mid-morning, still it was fun to be on the river. I have not fished a river in many years. We returned to grill the trout for lunch before packing up to come home. Thanks guys!

Beautiful pictures (for the most part)! I didn't know you cooked & ate fish you caught, well that Aaron caught. I'm so glad you all had such a good time.
Which pictures are not beautiful?
Well, the Museum from the past one is interesting, but I wouldn't call it beautiful. There's also the one where some guy is acting very silly...
Yeah, Scott is so silly.
