Day 3, April 18, Headed to Chattanooga

We left this morning in a very dense fog. This is how it looked!

We hurriedly packed up, because we lost track of the fact that today was our checkout day. It dawned on us about 9:30am, and by rule, we were supposed to be out of our campsite by 9:45am. Well, we did not make the 9:45, but by 10:10am, we were pulling out into that dense, foggy soup you see above.

One major victory we had was to find the dump site in the park, and we figured out how to empty our tanks. This is very important to know for the future, because the tanks typically need to be emptied every 2-3 days.

Once we made it down the mountain back to Chatsworth, we headed to Chattanooga, after a brief stop for gasoline and to change drivers from Doug to Patrise. We arrived in Chattanooga in short order and made our way to our cousin Angela's house. We spent the day catching up, reading, and then headed to dinner at a one of the more established restaurants in the city, the Boathouse. (I mistakenly call it "Boatride" in all of my photos. Chalk it up to poor memory.)

Here are some pictures from the day...
