KOA Cartersville, GA, to KOA, Nashville, TN:  Left Cartersville, GA, this morning at 10:00.  I’m driving first again. We gain an hour since we’re (finally) back on Central Time shortly after Chattanooga.  A pretty drive through the north Georgia mountains, past Chattanooga and then a big climb through the mountains.  Up and down for a while and then up on a high plateau the rest of the way to Nashville.  A lot of changes since we were through this way four years ago.  Murfreesboro is just south of Nashville and was kind of in the country.  Now there’s hardly any open land between Nashville and Murfreesboro.  More and more shopping malls and subdivisions and less open land.  I love both Georgia and Tennessee.  Lots of mountains and some great hiking.  We stopped somewhere north of Chattanooga for something to eat and then Mike took over driving.  Arrived at the KOA in Nashville and were set up by 2:30.  Relaxed outside reading for a while.  Then we went out for some dinner.  Three guys in a motor home two sites down from us are on their way to New Orleans for the “Final Four”.  Talked with them for a while.  84 here in Nashville. Staying here for two nights.
