Still On The Road

Just checking in to let you know we're still on the road.  We spent about ten hours on Sunday simply driving, taking turns, switching off every couple of hours.  We spend Sunday night at Spruce Pine Campground and since it was still early in the season, the owners gave a really nice secluded site that wasn't too far from the showers.  After we set up our tent, we walked around a bit, just taking in the peacefulness of our surroundings.  When we got back to our tent, spent a little bit of time getting dinner cooked.  I will admit, we kind of burned the hot dogs, but the beans cooked just fine.  After dinner we just sat around outside the tent and looked at the scenery.

We checked out early and after about an hour on the road stopped for breakfast and got a few sandwiches to go.  We arrived in Nashville a little after lunch and checked into a Days Inn near the Ryman Auditorium.  That was yesterday.  Today we took in some of the sights and, since we're already over our daily budget, we're just gonna relax, take a dip in the pool and have dinner.  We'll be checking out in the morning and taking I40 all the way to Frederick and hopefully we'll be at Great-Aunt Sarah's by dinnertime!

I'll be checking in with y'all in a couple of days.
