Next day we headed out about 8AM and made good time to the top of Mount Eagle and took the required pictures.
You can almost make out my brother's Fort tire cover.

We made it almost to the Tennessee River and hit a traffic jam.
It stretched for niles and niles and niles.

Took almost 2 1/2 hours to get to Chattanooga and about another 45 minutes to get to Interstate 75. Made to Buc-ee's about 8.00.
Had some Brisket, bought a hat and back on the road buy 9.00. Stopped for the night about an hour south of Atlanta. We were talking before we turned in and my brother said that it looked like my trailer was leaning to one side.

So this morning up early and after a couple phone calls a visit to a trailer dealer Stopped at the Buc-ee's just down the road and had some fun.
All that was left of the spring, could have been way worse.

Made it to the Florida welcome center


Should have been a dolphin statue but guessing it was damaged by the hurricane. The buildings and surrounding area had a lot of wind damage.almost lifted the roof off.
Saw a lot of downed trees driving through Valdosta.

Made it to our usual rest stop before the Turnpike for the night


Watching the weather. Don't need another hurricane like our trip 2 years ago.
