Sounds like a pretty cool trip!
But no. Landed in Nashville and then the plan was to drive to places in Kentucky & Tennessee to see some sights. Staying in different places as we went along. Can’t imagine trying to figure out charging stations and all that.
Tesla app (and other 3d party apps) as well as the screen in the car take car of the charging station issue.
Our trip had no charging stations. No need. They hadn’t been invented yet. Gas stations, car repair shops, etc were greatly appreciated, though! It was the modern version of “The Odyssey” from 1970. And a bit of a cross into “National Lampoon’s Vacation”. Flat tires…busted mufflers…no A/C going home through Death Valley. I’m being perfectly honest.
That trip from Florida to Alaska and back was one for the ages. My parents must have been a little off-kilter, though I didn’t realize it back then. My older siblings probably did, but yeah, they were trapped, too. By that I mean that all of us were a captive audience in that car.
We all learned a LOT on those summer trips. Part of it was how to deal with adversity. Happened on every trip every summer. A priest once told me that the thing that keeps a family together is not always the good times, but the tough times they go through and get through TOGETHER.
I think he was spot on!
P.S. I hope you will enjoy your trip. Both states are full of goodness and beauty. Just make sure you go off the beaten path. Amazing, and oh so beautiful!!!
A lot has changed in these last several decades, but the natural beauty is still there. Go find it! You will not be disappointed. Stay away from the tourist trap sites like Gatlinburg.
If I think of more, I’ll let you know.
Ok, I think I got lost on the timeline. Your trip was a few years ago, right?
I got that mixed up on my last reply. I hope you had a fun trip when you went. Both of those states are beautiful!
