After leaving Natchez Trace, we drove eastward to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. En route was a 1-hour bumper-to-bumper delay due to 2 overturned trucks, one in the median, one on the shoulder. We had lunch while waiting for the traffic to clear and listened to the funny CB chatter. Stayed in an RV park in Sevierville, TN. Had to drive through Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, quite "kitchsy," all sorts of country music jamborees, dinner shows, amusement parks, even a Louise Mandrell theater. The Great Smokys, however, were just gorgeous. Waterfalls, mountain streams, and trees, [View Full Entry]

Left Hot Springs and drove into Tennessee through Memphis. With Tropical Storm Arlene causing some concern, decided to spend 2 nights at a great state park near Lexington. Friday evening and Saturday were overcast, it rained overnight on Saturday, and Sunday was just a misty drizzle as we left for Eastern Tennessee.

Drove into Hot Springs, visited the bathhouses and drove through the National Park. Gathered some of the hot spring water - it makes great coffee. Had his and her whirlpool baths and massages in the evening - very relaxing! [View Full Entry]

Our maiden voyage with Coco and Rhonda (the Honda) was Fri., May 13. We drove to Austin late Friday and arrived after dark at the La Hacienda RV park at Lake Travis. Alan did a great job backing Coco into a pretty tight space. Thanks to the Workcampers for holding flashlights! Stephen came to see us Friday nite. Took NO photos all weekend - shame on us. Tried out our new grill at lunch on Saturday with John, Tina and the kids (from San Antonio), then Stephen and 4 buddies came for a dinner cookout and the Mavericks game. We shared [View Full Entry]
