2019 TN Vacation - Day 1 Trip Report

Preparing for vacation is always a difficult task but this time around I felt like it was harder than most. This was our first trip to Tennessee without Mary and it just didn't seem right not seeing her suitcase packed a month in advance; waiting in the dining room saying "ARE WE THERE YET?"

But we managed to get packed and in bed by 8:30 as we planned. We even packed the cooler with sandwiches and anything that would spoil before our return. However 3 AM came way to early for all of us! Out the door by 4 AM and on the road by 415 AM.

The drive down was fairly uneventful and Google saved us big time by routing us around a hour and a half backup near Baltimore. WAY TO GO GOOGLE! With just three stops we made it to TN in exactly 12 hours!

To sit in our condo and looking out at this wonderful Mountain view was worth the 12 hour drive!

We ate dinner at a great low key restaurant with unbelievable food! Huck Finns Catfish & Fried Chicken is a must if you love Catfish or Fried Chicken.

Jesse got such a kick out of the jar of milk they brought him! He almost drank all of it too! But he just couldn't finish with all the fresh hush puppies he ate.

We were a little weary from the long drive but couldn't resist getting some family pics in.

ANNNDDDDDD what a surprise we found a chicken! Jesse even found a stuffed chicken in the gift shop!

Chuck said to say "The food was SPECTACULAR!" I actually think he has said that the food was spectacular six times in the last three minutes. SOOOO Ladies and Gents the food at Huck Finns is SPECTACULAR!

So spectacular that he had to get the T-shirt!
