Rainy day in Georgia


We are actually about 5 mile inside Tennessee. Rained all day so took the day off. Cloud cover is at 1000' so can not see the top of Raccoon or Lookout Mountain ridges. They have a reservoir power plant 1100' inside Raccoon Mt. where they pump water for hydroelectric generation when needed. Still learning the ins and outs of RV life. We have now used the convection microwave, gas oven, range top, and outside grill. Camping is a rough life. Here is our living room.

Wood County Ohio Tour










Saturday was a busy day starting with a brisk 54 degree 60 mile motorcycle ride. The reward was the BGSU campus, Bowling Green wind turbines (electric for 18,000 homes at full capacity), the Historic Construction Equipment Assoc. Convention (old codger toys), and the Wood County Museum and Lunatic House (got to see the last hanging noose used in Wood County). A very diverse day in North Central Ohio.
