Chapel Hill TN Henry Horton State Park

Left Granville and set up camp at Chapel Hill by 3PM..finally decided that we'd reset all the clocks to the new time and time zone...BANG, 2 hrs are gone and it's dark at 5PM..YUK!!..sun's gonna be up awfully early in the A.M... This stop is a 1 day only..heading for Mississippi again in the morning..only 3 campers in the whole park so it'll be very quiet tonite..Planning on taking the Natchez Trail SW as it's about the most direct route to MS and we want to get to our favorite campground pronto.. It's in Long Beach,Ms and close to casinos (grin). Only 2 or 3 more stops til we get there..The mountain colors are mindboggling at this time of the year so driving never gets boring..Glad we had the brakes updated before we left as they're getting a real workout thru Kentucky and Tennessee.. Wish we had a Jake Brake..Some of the uphills slow us down to less than 50MPH..you can hear the song " I think I can, I think I can" as the old Chevy 350 pushes on !..Mid grade gas down here in going for $3.56/gal, which, to a Michigander, is cheap..food, cigarettes and camp fees are a lot less expensive too..we're still staying lucky weatherwise (knock on wood) and hope it holds out for driving days..hope all of you are happy..REEMEMBER, LIVE YOUR DREAMS AS TIME GOES BY QUICKLY..Charlie & Heather
