4/9/2019 Defeated Creek Park Tennesse

We had about a 4 hour drive today. Also we changed time zones so we gained an hour. We hit the road around 8:00 am. It was a very pretty drive thru north Georgia and then Tennessee.  We took Highway 111 north of Chattanooga all the way to I-40.  I was surprised at the steep grades we went thru, several 8% and 9% grades. There was one climb where we had rock ledges on both sides of the road with small waterfall's coming down. I couldn't get any pictures because the pull outs were not big enough for a truck and trailer, also I didn't want to start back up from a dead stop. We stopped and ate a light lunch and still made it to our campground by 12:30.  Defeated Creek is a very nice COE Park that we have stayed in before. We have stayed in the same site at least 3 times in the past. We are about 40 miles east of Nashville. We plan on just chilling till Friday. It looks as if we are going to have great weather.
