And Away We Go!
On November 14th, at 4:15 a.m., we pulled out of Deerfield, IL to begin our RV adventure. By noon, we were in Louisville, KY, where we dined at the Buckhead Mountain Grill on the Indiana side of the river. We arrived at Bowling Green, KY at 2:00 p.m. We stopped at Best Buy to purchase an adapter so I can power the computer and cell phone with battery power. Then we stopped for gas before setting up camp at KOA.
Since it had started to rain, it was good to get off the road, set up early, give ourselves time to reorganize and relax a bit. We have been working so hard to prepare for the road. Now that we are on it, we can take time to recoup.
We laughed at ourselves as we tried to locate needed items. After all the months of planning, we had to tweak our storage of quickly accessible resources, such as maps, guide books, etc. We will get better at all this as we go along.
Weather is thwarting our plans. We are under a tornado watch-not the best feeling when one is sitting in a rolling tin can. We planned to tour the Corvette factory tomorrow morning and maybe the Mammoth Caves in the afternoon, then we were moving to Nashville, TN. However, all evening, they have been posting severe weather warnings for tomorrow. So we will decide early tomorrow whether we will stay put here at the KOA to ride out the predicted storm or if we will make a run for the deep South of Alabama or Georgia. So goodbye to my tour of the Smokey Mountains, but safety first.
Still working on photos, but I will get there eventually. So long for now.
