Comments
Comments: The girls and I went the scenic route to Lakes of the Clouds Hut where we spent the night. Finally bagged Franklin, which we thought we bagged two years ago but were mistaken (we were on the other peak of Monroe instead....oops). Herd path from Crawford Path to summit of Franklin is well defined.

Saw what I think was the International Space Station fly across the night sky after dinner. Fantastic.

Full report on my BLOG by Monday evening (Aug 27th).
