Traveling North

We left the Tennessee Rally to travel south of Nashville to Natchez Trace Thousand Trails Preserve. Rain and gray all day. We got to the park and were told "Sorry, the tornado that went through two days ago has shut down the park!" Now, we are in the middle of nowhere so where to next. We ended up at David Crockett State Park and no, we did not have to take the coach through the covered bridge, but isn't it cute!





We did park among the very big trees, however, but it was a nice campground with big sites and no satellite! The rain made the green very green. It was beautiful.










The next day we did some sight-seeing. We had passed the road to Jack Daniel's Distillery many times and now we had our chance. It was a fun tour on a beautiful site with a cold water springs coming out from a cave and lots of flowers and trees. Inside the smells were most remembered (couldn't take pictures) but everything from the mash to the final product smelled good!











We made a long day of driving and spent an evening with Jan. My brother was out of town on business, but Jan was happy to let Mitch use their kitchen to cook up a wonderful lamb and couscous dinner.

The next morning we visited my dad. He is doing well health-wise and we had a good visit.


Then on to Garner to visit Mitch's Mom. She is always a lot of fun to visit.
