Good morning! Yesterday was another beautiful but chilly day with temps ranging from 64 to 52 degrees we were all in jackets but enjoying the intermittent sunshine. There's something to be said for a grey day. While the sun is missed, the dark clouds bring a rest to the body that is at times much needed. After a beautiful sunset, the pinks and purples of sunrise could be seen in the valley (although we couldn't see it ourselves) it was interesting to see the colors change over Pigeon Forge as the sun came up. It is supposed to be another clear day for us up top with rain expected tomorrow evening. As we are in the clouds now, that sun isn't looking too promising but the mountain is forever changing the weather up top. Enjoy the cooler day! Can you name this insect?? -Adventure is out there.

That looks like it might be an Elderberry Borer Beetle.
