First of all. Hi to Dennis our new flying buddy! Found the pictures of you, the Miati and the teardrop travelling.\u00a0 Very cool! Hope you enjoyed the Oreos \ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n

We are now in TN.\u00a0 Much cooler (temp wise) and a whole lot more mountainous than AL.\u00a0 Although we did hit 1 road as we were coming out of AL that was quite fun, Route 33.\u00a0 Look it up on the map.\u00a0 All of those switchbacks are straught up. A very old cool road. Just the kind we like.<\/p>\n

We are now sitting in a state park that is on one of the former rivers turned lake by a humongous dam.\u00a0 I had always heard about the TN dams and all the controversies around relocating people, but wow it is huge.<\/p>\n

Our campsite is on the lake side of the dam. We are perched on a wooden platform above the lake. Because it used to be a river it is very steep down to the water. It is a bit like camping on a pier, but we are over the bank and the lake is in front of us. Nice breeze and a good view through the trees. We even found, ok someone told us, how to get down to the water to swim. It is nice cool water similar to swimming in a lake at home in August.\u00a0 This girl needs to be in the water, I get grumpy when I dry out.<\/p>\n

Here is the rig. We are looking a bit like the Beverly Hill Billies with our awnings and laundry. The water is behind me.<\/p>\n
