Since we were at Mammoth Cave on Wednesday we have driven across Tennessee and part of Georgia. Bill is getting good at navigating the motorhome through cities. Last night we camped near Rome,Georgia at a county park on the Coosa River. We had a beautiful view out our front window of the river. Very few campers were in the park. Everything was fine until the winds and rains started in the night. The problem was that it brought down the acorns from the oak tree we were parked under. Becca did not like the sounds of acorns bombarding our roof!! We drove in rain all morning. We toured Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park. Luckily the rain kept Beth from having to walk all over and study every sign. Then we drove to Macon (right through downtown Atlanta) to visit Ocmulgee National Monument. Just as we got off the interstate we noticed stop lights out and signs down. By the time we got to the park trees and branches were down all over. We had missed the storm by a few minutes. Ocmulgee is about ancient civilizations with big mounds. Tonight we are in Perry, GA at a private campground and it is warmer and has stopped raining. Tomorrow we head south toward Florida. Hope to be at Disney World on Sunday.
