We are back on Ontario time....

 

 

Our Location: 

Walmart, Carrolton, Kentucky

 

We left Jacksonville, Tennessee around 7:30 am CDT and a few hours later we crossed into EDT around Upton, Kentucky so we are back in our own time zone. We arrived here around 3 pm EDT. We travelled approx 352 miles/567 km, we used approx 30 gallons of diesel. 

 

 

Nashville's river.

Entering into Nashville, Tn.

We can see spring just starting to show buds on the trees and the grass is beautiful green.

The I-65 Corridor is breaking into light green of spring.

The roads were good and bad, the area between Elizabethtown and La Grange on I-65 N to I 71N was horrendous. It was a rough few hours and we are both tired from all of the thumping and bumping around. Fuel ranged from $3.79 - $4.80 per gallon. The Big Dog's drinking bowl was getting pretty low by the end of the day.

 

The Kentucky Welcome Center.


We parked for a leg stretch.

It's a beautiful and well needed stop.

Just a hint of green in the trees.

 

No news today from my sister. Chatted with my Dad when we arrived, he hasn't heard anything new either.  


Pretty purple on the road sides.

Cutting grass.

Using a whipper snipper too.


Thanks for stopping by, I hope you've all had a good day. 

 

Until next time....

 

Take care, stay safe, 

 

Deb

  1. Another longish day. But you're now in the right time zone! Does Riley drive too? It takes an acquired skill to handle a rig like yours.

    1. It was longish, tomorrow will be a much shorter day. No Riley doesn’t drive at all, well maybe the Quad but not a vehicle.

  4. Glad you are making good progress but sad that you are getting closer to home as that means your blogs will become less frequent.
