Natchez Trace

Today we made it to 1000 Trails/Naco's Natchez Trace Wilderness Reserve. Had to go about 20 miles out of the way because the closest route is to low. Just after you turn off the Natchez Trace you double back under and the clearance is only 11 feet and we want to keep our RV at the present height. :-). Kentucky I65 was once again the pits. Very rough south of Bowling Green. Yesterday we took the tour for Diamond Caverns. This caverns are straight down and not like Meramec Caverns. It had some beautiful sights, but was 3 level of stars down and then back up. In the afternoon we went to Mammoth Caverns National Park. We took the short tour there and got a basic look at it. Mammoth is really spread out. It is the longest Caverns in the world I believe. It doesn't have much color as didn't look like there were to many minerals in the water and very few stalagmites and stalactites. It does have some huge open space in some areas. Even though it was much cooler in them than outside, the stairs were still tiring. If you ever get to Mammoth Caverns National Park, it is a must to visit the hamburger stand at the hotel. They have the best ice cream cones that I have had in a long long time. It is soft serve cones, but it was firm with a good texture and tasted a whole lot like the old home made ice cream. The large must be close to a foot high and was only $1.15.

We will be here until 8/14. Large lake here, but a Tennessee fishing license is required, so doubt that will do any fishing. Fishing not a hot item right now, still recovering from all the chigger bites that I got at Horseshoe Lake last week. Had forgot about those little devils, but even then would not thought they would be that far north.
We only have 30 amp here, but are under a large tree which helps with the hot weather. Suppose to have gotten to 100 both here and at Diamond Caverns where we just left. Suppose to get up to 100 again tomorrow and then drop down to the mid nighties.
They are suppose to have Davy Crockett shindig at the Davy Crockett Park near here. We will probably check that out, but may wait until Friday when it is suppose to be cooler. Here is picture taken at Diamond Caverns.
