We just had to cruise to Cades Cove because you know, everybody does.  Traffic is pleasantly light and we are delighted at the only stoppage, a bear jam.  We get a nice look at a mama bear and two yearlings moving through the meadow not far off the road.  We stop for a picnic lunch along the Little River then head on home.  Not quite yet.  Another bear jam.  A lone cub/yearling is foraging just off the road.  He looks cute, small and a bit lonesome but here’s hoping he will be just fine.
