October 19, 2014. Traveling through Tennessee

CAMPGROUND:  Seven Points.  It is an Army Corps of Engineers park.  We have heard that they are nice, and they are.  5 stars out of 5.  Nice, woodsy sites.  Lots of privacy. On man-made lake with beautiful views. Good bathroom and showers.  Water and electricity hook-ups at each site.  $10 with George's senior pass.
LOCATION:  Right outside Nashville, Tennessee in suburb called Hermitage, named after Andrew Jackson's home here
WEATHER:  Nice fall day. Highs in 60s

We packed up from Land Between the Lakes.  I had to hide my eyes when George pulled the camper from our site.  We were really on a sharp decline toward the lake.  I was afraid he would slide into the water!  He did superbly, of course.

We stopped in Clarksville for lunch at a brewpub.  I had a black IPA; George had a porter. Both were good.  We split a delicious flatbread pizza.

Our destination was Nashville where we will stay a few days before starting the Natchez Trace trip.  We got settled into the new site and George built a nice fire.

DINNER: We baked potatoes by wrapping them in aluminum foil and throwing them on the fire.  I made a sauce with the leftover BBQ brisket, onions, garlic, chicken broth, and BBQ sauce.  Pretty good for leftovers!
