In our case it was rhododendrons to be smelled. We've just completed our 5 mile hike here in the Great Smokies. What a lush diverse area. As Adam said, this is probably about as far removed a landscape as we could find from our final destination. Thick green underbrush, sticky humid air, intermittent showers, tropical looking plants and dense trees. It's amazing to me how much diversity there is on this planet. The amazing beauty of it all is such a powerful reminder to me of how much there is to be grateful for and makes me wonder how anyone beholding such beauty could doubt the existence of a god of some kind. We are now off to drive to the highest point in the Smokies. And as far as smelling things goes, we are now mostly smelling ourselves. Stinky hikers!
