Another Safe day on the road...thks for your prayers!



Well….our odometer is now reading 2663 km from our trip thus far.
Today we left Winchester, Virginia around 8am and arrived in Gatlinburg, Tennessee around 3pm.  It was a great day of driving and the temperature went from -2C to 12C when we arrived.   Our spot “Tree Tops Resort” is a nice spot directly in the Smokey Mountains.  Jerry is gone to the gym, I'm vegetating, and tomorrow we’ll be out getting our groceries and checking out the hikes, places where Jerry can run and check on which event(s) we may go to this week.
Our internet is not very strong here so we could not ‘facetime’ and therefore could only ‘hear’ the grandchildren…not see them….boohoo!!  I may have to go to our activities room to get to do my blog…..we’ll see.
Facts, since leaving Montrose, PEI, by Jerry:
States we drove in:  Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia and Tennessee.
$150 Cdn. spent on gas
Km driven – 2663
Gas mileage – 8.4L/100 km
Longest highway driven is #81 – 949 km
The drive through Servierville (Dolly Parton’s hometown), Pigeon Forge to Gatlinburg was like driving through Cavendish, PEI on steroids in the middle of July!!!  (Continuous for about 18 kms).
