Rainbows and Roses In and Around Maggie Valley.

Posted May 28th, 2009 by Susie Blackmon

We have been in the thunderstorm cycle here in the Maggie Valley and Waynesville area recently, so the pictures in this show that I shot yesterday were taken right after a little rain storm. Thus, some of the flowers were beautifully wet, and the rainbow was, well, colorful. Now, if I could just find that pot of gold.
