Rain Day

Day two I got up and got going by 9 am.  I made it to Lynchburg, Virginia by 3:30 and decided to find a room for the night.  Checking the weather I saw that Missississippi and Alabama had like 41 tornadoes during the day – yikes!  Looking at rain heading towards Virginia.  Anyway I would be going looked like I would get part way and hit rain.   I decided to stay an additional night.  The weekend weather was looking sunny!

I took off Saturday morning the temps were 52, not bad!  I was in the valleys looking up at the Blue Ridge Parkway, the trees were beautiful!  I did notice that the colors down here are more muted, but still pretty to see.  The winds were 20-30 mph with some gusts to 50.  Thank goodness they decreased as the day went on.  The temps dropped to 47 in the mountains and when I reached Knoxville they were back up to 62 degrees.  When I stopped for gas about 4:30 there was a hotel across the street, decided to grab a room for the night.  It was a little more expensive, but I had a large room with a soaking tub!  That was a nice treat!

More rain is working across the mid west tonight, so we will see how far I get!

Love and Light to you all!
