Gregg-Cable House (Cades Cove)
Taken in Cades Cove in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. There is a similar photo in the tour guide that you can purchase when you start the 11 mile loop road. I wanted to duplicate the photo as best I could. It is quite similar but I did not have my wide angle lens with me (it became lost on our AL trip) so it is a little different. Here is some info on the house:
Cades Cove's Becky Cable died in her Cades Cove home in 1940 at age ninety-four. At the time she and her house were located on Forge Creek Road but after her death the Great Smoky Mountain National Park service decided the Cable Mill area was a better location for the house. Becky Cable was a remarkable lady who lived a long productive life in the cove. She raised her brother's children after he and his wife became ill. She also ran a boarding house as well as her brother's farm. She raised gardens, cattle and food for herself, her family and her boarders.
