LOL! From that link, I may be a Speleologist!

speleologists were amateurs. The 1950's saw the rise of legitimate speleology, as scientific methods began to be applied to caves and cave life. Many experts in the field are trained as geologists, hydrologists, biologists, surveyors, are teachers, or employees of land management concerns such as parks or commercial caves. Some speleologists even today are largely self- educated in the field, with jobs having nothing to do with natural resources.

Thank you, Meg. I don't believe we've met. Now that we have....welcome to the Finest!

And don't believe everything you hear about a certain guy they call Wolfie around here.

Unless it's good. : )

What a great post and graphics. Thank you Mama_Bear.

You're welcome. Thank you for your compliments. I'm glad you came along with us to Tennessee today.

FR does have a vast wealth of talent, but actually, my talent primarily consists of copying, pasting, up-loading and downloading. Anyone could do it. ;-)

Tennessee is called the Volunteer State because so many Tennesseeans journeyed to Texas to save it from the Mexicans......

The original words to the song were"the eyes of Texas are upon you, You are from Tennessee."

Well, fuzzy, you outdid yourself on this one.....BEAUTIFUL!!

Awwwwwww........thank you so much. You know your compliments mean so much to me. :-)

I know. LOL

But you didn't include one of these bad boys... I know! I would'of, and should'of, but my presentation was becoming way too long. I just couldn't fit everything in. But, thank you, dear wolf, for bringing this to my attention - before TTM did. ;-)

You'r welcome. I'm much nicer at bringing things to your "attention" than T-Man. : )

Hi, Mr.T! : )

Good morning, Lori - this is a beautiful presentation of one of the prettiest states I've ever visited. I can see why Aqua loves to go there often...the "peaceful side of the mountains" is breathtaking - a far cry from the splashy, crowded, touristy Gatlinburg and Dollyville! Thank you for the tour, the history, and the trivia. :)



I still love this rose. :)
