Warning: long and boring blog bit

Our visit to Mongomery has many memories which we wish to preserve. The blog may not therefore be logical, so I have split the blog into sections: Our visit, My thoughts, Montgomery as a place and its historical importance. Readers may wish to skip parts. Feel free to only read relevant bits.

Road Trip 5:..... West Georgia, Tennessee and Kentucky

This is our fifth trip and this time we plan to explore Western Georgia, Tennessee and Kentucky. We arrive on the 9th Ferbruary. We will:...
*Do some more bluegrass in Florida.
*Travel North on the border between Alabama and Georgia looking at some of the more famous Civil War Sites.
*Cross into Tennessee and explore the Smoky Mountains.
*Follow the Appalachians North into Kentucky, then move West to Lexington and Nashville.
*We may get time to get to Memphis, but will not push ourselves.
We do not expect to return to Florida this time.
We fly home on the 7th May.
We hope that you might enjoy sharing our adventures.

Road Trips to America

This blog is an account of our trials and adventures in America. It had long been our plan to tour the United States. We have caravanned in the UK for many years so it seemed obvious to buy a caravan in the US. Now we had retired we wanted to take our time, not just a few weeks at a time, as we had done before. Sally has CFS/M.E. and we need to plan travelling very carefully. We do not want to travel much more than a couple of hours a day, with plenty of days off. How best to accomplish this? After much thought we have bought our own car and Travel Trailer and keep it in the U.S. We accomplished this on our first trip. We now own a 31ft Travel Trailer and 15 seat passenger van. Our second trip saw us touring round Central and Northern Florida. We spent a lot more time visiting Bluegrass and Folk Fesitvals. Our third trip was to the Northern part of Forida and the Panhandle. Our fourth trip took us North through Central Georgia to the Blue Ridge Mountains, through North and South Carolina and back to Florida along the coast. On our Fifth Trip we travelled north through Georgia., Alabama and Tennessee.
This blog will enable our friends and relatives to keep up with us, as well as providing a record of our travels.
