Lake City, Tennessee
After almost two weeks at Lake Powhatan in North Carolina it was time to hitch-up and go. We took our time because we weren’t going far. Kirby got up on the roof with the brush and the hose and cleaned off a thousand leaves that were trying to sneak out of the campground with us. We headed out on Interstate 40 and were in Tennessee in no time at all. I love changing states which really is kind of silly as it really looks the same on both sides of the state line.
The drive was hilly and curvy and very beautiful. Sometimes I get frustrated with all of the
trucks on the road but then I remember that they are the ones who keep this
country going. How would we be able to
buy anything we want at any time we want if it weren’t for the truckers and the
people who drive them. And we can ship
anywhere we want and not worry about how it gets there in a day or two. It is like magic isn’t?
We did not like our access to the beautiful campground we
are in and I don’t look forward to leaving but Kirby is the driver and he is
fantastic at getting this big rig around.
Norris Dam State Park just north of Knoxville is a lovely forest of tall
trees. But just like Lake Hartwell in
South Carolina, it is very poorly maintained.
There is something about the look of our site that makes me think that
we are the first to sit here this season and it almost looks like the snow has
just recently melted. (But how could
that be?)
We are just here for two nights so tomorrow we will again
travel that steep and curvy narrow road and find our way back out to the
highway.
