Day 24: Heading to North Carolina

We left Nashville, headed to North Carolina next. We wanted to keep focused today because thunderstorms were expected in the afternoon at our destination. It was another 3.5-hour trip that took nearly all day due to connectivity on the road, so we enjoyed a couple hours of conference calls from another visitor center parking lot.

During this leg of the trip we lost an hour entering the Eastern Time Zone, but welcomed another hour in the morning before school starts. It will now start at 11:50 and their final call is at 6 p.m.

We made it to the campsite, the Townsend-Great Smokies KOA in plenty of time before the rain started. Not a particularly exciting day, but we made it!
