Awake: 6:45am Temp 58 sleep 5+50 sunny overnight @ West Memphis, AR.
It’s a beautiful day for travel….but we can’t leave until the local mail arrives. I had it sent from Alaska last Saturday via the U.S. Postal Service. Finally today @ 10:30am, the mail arrives; (5) days later & postmarked Saturday the 21st. They call this Priority Mail!
We leave the Tom Sawyer RV Park @ 11:23am. This campground was good for us; easy & close access to downtown Memphis; secluded, quiet & scenic view of the l-o-n-g barges that slowly move up & down the Mississippi River & the friendly workers that keep all of these 80 acres manicured + the free laundry facilities. When we return, this place will be on our list.
I-40 continues to be very smooth….. or could it be the new ZF suspension system from Germany.
We arrive @ the Nashville country RV Park in Goodlettsville, TN @ 3:54pm.
Today’s travel: 241 miles 4+31 time 37.8 gal used 6.4 mpg 53.6 avg speed.
This park is crowded & small with some tight turns. But….with the steering tag axle we now have, it was no problem making those turns. Before dinner, Kathy & I take a walk around the campground; we couldn’t help noticing on one tight turn, the solid white fence had been hit & completely run over. Apparently it happened after our arrival. During our campground walk, we casually watched for signs of scratches or dents on other parked RV’s; we found nothing suspicious.
Late dinner: tuna steak, veggie medley in Boursin cheese sauce & a mixed salad.
