Appalachian Trail in Hot Springs, NC, 4/29/2014

 My dream: hiking the Appalachian trail. We hiked  0.0007th of its 2,200 miles, but that was fine with me.
 The trail runs right through the town and vears North after crossing the....
roaring French Broad River.
 For once, we had no trouble finding our way: white blazes mark the trail.
 View of Hot Springs from the first overlook and below from the second overlook.
Are there hot springs in Hot Springs, NC? Yes. And did we soaked in the hot springs? Yes.  After climbing up to the overlook (1.6-mile round trip) we had a relaxing soak.
