Day 2 - On The Road Again

This morning was nice. We found out that sleeping in a camper in the Cracker Barrel parking lot isn't too bad at all. We woke up about 6:00, got dressed and went to breakfast. We don't eat at the Cracker Barrel very much at all so this was a real treat. We left pretty much on schedule at 8:00 and headed toward Knoxville, TN. About half way there, we came upon an accident. It looked as if an 18 wheeler had lost control and ran off the road in a large, tree filled ravine. It was very hard to see anything, but there were lots of emergency vehicles around. In fact the highway was closed for a while and we had to sit and wait for about 45 minutes without moving at all. Bummer!

After we got through that, we traveled through Knoxville, and finally stopped to prepare lunch. Since we have many miles to travel today, we grabbed lunch and ate it as we got back on the road.
