Continuing Westward

Happy Father's Day & The First Day of Summer


It was raining in the morning and temps were about 70, but as soon as we drove out of the rain, temps were back in the mid-90's again. We drove west continuing on route 64 through the Hendersonville and Murphy, NC areas. We crossed into Tennessee through the beautiful Ocoee gorge where we had gone rafting a few years ago. Diesel is running about $2.49.


We stopped early in Savannah, TN so Jack could watch the end of the US Open. We could only get ABC over the air, but they had satellite in the clubhouse and the folks running the campground offered to set everything up so he could watch the Open. Just as we were getting ready to walk over to the clubhouse, all the power went out. No TV or air conditioning and it is hot, hot, hot - about 100. We jumped in the squeaky clean pool for a hour or so to keep cool, even though the water must have been in the mid 80s. Still no power, so we had to run the generator to make dinner. Sat outside in the shade until dark, then we had to run the generator again for the air conditioner so we could sleep. The power came back on a few hours later.
