Great pic!
Paul has a true eye for the dramatic like this. I only wish for comparison’s sake we had a shot of the 2005 flood, when the mountains and Tellico area got 13 inches of rain in 24 hours. Mom and I drove up three days after that downpour and the falls were three or four times more swollen than this. The roar was so deafening, that time, we couldn’t even hear each other shout.
