Chattanooga, TN


We arrived in Chattanooga, TN this afternoon. The picture at left is of the sunrise this morning before we left Natchez Trace State Park. We decided to leave Natchez Trace a day early and take our time going to Florence, SC. Bob wanted to get through Atlanta on Sunday, so we will go to a park in Greensboro, GA tomorrow for 2 nights. We are right on the GA state line tonight...in fact we crossed over into GA and back into TN just before we got here. We went to Lowe's this evening and the closest one was in GA. I just realized that Georgia's sales tax is much lower than Tennessee's, so I'm glad we went to the one in GA! This park is OK, but we are so spoiled after two weeks at Natchez Trace that it's going to take a special place to compete. (And this park costs almost twice what we paid at NTSP). We had beautiful weather for travelling today and Bob made it over Monteagle without any white-knuckles. :-) It was actually very beautiful, especially with all the fall colors. We decided to postpone going to the Tennessee Aquarium until our return from Florida in early April. We will spend 2-3 days in Chattanooga at that time and be able to enjoy the aquarium and IMAX theater much more. There is plenty to see and do in this area, so we are looking forward to visiting again in the Spring.
