Holston Mountain, TN - October 2004 - This weekend we decided to go check out our old
college stomping grounds in north-east Tennessee...we really miss that place! Or maybe
we're just getting old and nostalgic! Anyway, we hiked up on Holston Mountain to the Flint
Rock overlook to try to see the fall colors around Holston Lake. I had hiked to this overlook in
the fall once in college, and it was amazing, but my pictures were all from a crappy, cheap
camera, so I wanted to try again with a better camera. Well, the colors were great, but the
weather was not at all helpful, and you can't really see the colors. I'm also beginning to feel
that my Olympus camera doesn't do fall colors justice, so the pictures aren't the awesome
things I was hoping to get...oh well. We also went down to the Holston Lake afterwards, and I
tried to recapture some fog pictures on this lake that I had also once taken with my cheap
camera. I'm not sure how well those turned out, either. But we had a great time!
