Awake: 7:05am temp 65 sleep 6+44 overcast overnight @ Caryville, TN.
We leave the Cove Lake State Park campground @ 9:20am. (15) min north on I-75, we are in the sunshine. Mary Ann calls to inquire about getting together again today, but we’re on our way. So it’s: I-75 to I-64 to I-79 to I-68 to US 219 to route 553 to Nicktown.
A short downpour dirtied our clean coach just south of Lexington, KY but going east brought back those blue skies again. Our intention was to make this a casual (2) day trip but the good weather kept us traveling. I-79 & I-68 had abundant up & down hills with many curves; not so good for fuel mileage.
We like sneaking into my small hometown arriving @ 7:50pm; had it not been for Barry & Bonnie outside doing some yard work, we would have been successful.
Today’s travel: 582 miles 10+48 time 100.4 gal used 5.8 mpg 54 mph avg speed.
Our campground looks good; grass not too high yet & no trees that we know of blown down.
Kathy plugs us into our 50 amps; we extend our slides & we are in our home for the night.
Light & late dinner: A salad bowl from the Ridge BBQ restaurant.
High travel temp=81 Lights out:12:22am
