1 Nov. 2018 Pigeon Forge to Nashville, TN

The drive from Pigeon Forge was tense as we drove through a storm front. The rain was heavy at times but mostly heavy drizzle. Otherwise the drive along I-40 was beautiful with the leaves changing color. We are staying just outside Nashville at Nashville Shores RV resort ($59 per night with GSC discount). We chose this park because it is close to the airport. David was supposed to fly out next week for meetings. But they canceled just before we left for Nashville. We had hoped to see a doctor in Knoxville for Leslie’s knee, but they dragged out the doctor review of her records, so we gave up on them and made an appointment with her doctor in Dallas. We can’t get in until 14 November, so decided to stay in Nashville for most of the original time we had planned (they would only let us cut the stay short by one day). Then on to Memphis for a short stay before getting to a resort just east of Dallas by the 13th

The Nashville Shores resort is a water park similar to Clay’s Park in Canton, only nicer. We are in a pull through site with full utilities. Water pressure is very good. Surface is concrete as are the roads. It looks like it has aged fairly well. There are also back in sites along the lakeshore but there is no lake access (there is a four foot fence along the waterfront). WiFi is good, but cell service is weak. The water park is closed for the season, as is the tree course (those all cost extra).  It is definitely not worth $59 a night.
