Rocky Top

Spending our last night on the road just below Rocky Top, Tennessee. Love the song, did not see the place, except for a string of gas stations and fast food on Interstate 75. We left Chicago this morning and dropped Brian at O'Hare. We drove and drove until stopping for dinner at an Olive Garden near the bottom of Kentucky.

We decided not to visit Great Smokey Mountain National Park since they have had tons of rain and flooding in the area. Who knows what we would find there, so we will go there another time. Meanwhile we are anxious to get home and rescue Sirius from the kennel. Poor thing has been there through torrential thunderstorms and his nerves must be shattered. I am looking forward to sitting on the couch and hugging him for a few days.
