We Drove from Chattanooga TN to Cave City KY via Nashville today. It was only a 5 hour drive with stops mostly on freeway. Getting out of the Raccoon Mountain camp ground to I-27 required dodging some low hanging trees. We ran into some rain along the way, so the Wanderer is going to need a good scrubbing. We were disappointed they did not open Russell Cave NM while we were there. We hope this is not a trend for the rest of the summer. We are staying at Cave City RV Campground ($37 per night) in Cave City. When we went to check in, we found out they were not expecting us until the next day due to a screw up by the staff, but they moved some other arrivals around and squeezed us in. We are only 5 miles from the entrance to Mammoth Cave National Park. We have tickets for a self guided tour of the cave on Sunday. The guided tours are still not starting back up yet, but they are allowing the self guided tours on staggered starting times to enforce social distancing in the cave. We also plan to see Abraham Lincoln’s Birthplace National Historic Site as well as the nearby Corvette Museum. After arrived in Cave City, we went out to get some groceries and ended up going to four different little groceries stores to find only a portion of what we wanted. So it looks like trips to Bowling Green for grocery shopping will be required. Checking the weather, it seems like the rain is following us north as there is a good chance for rain to rain the entire time we are here.
