1176 October 27, 2024 Still Tennessee

I took a short walk and then we got another early start.

We drove and drove and drove across Tennessee.  We stopped at most rest stops to walk and stretch.  It is day 5 of driving and we are stiff.  We are not accustomed to sitting so much. 

We were looking for the next rest area when we ran into a section of red traffic.  The phone GPS initially said 1 hour and 1 minute of traffic.  Tim and I switched places and we creeped along.  The traffic did dissipate much more quickly than we expected.  I drove then for about 1 ½ hours.  It was not nearly as nerve wracking as yesterday!  We stopped and took a break and Tim got back behind the wheel.  We did over 400 miles.  It was a sunny Sunday and driving was fairly pleasant with less traffic and far fewer trucks.

Some signs of fall.

The cutest little pumpkin!

We stopped at around 4pm in Kingsport, Tennessee at another Cracker Barrel.

Dinner, then showers, then bed!
