It was a quick trip, but we saw a lot. Traffic forced us on to a lot of less beaten paths and that turned out to be a blessing. We had a great time. Really liked what we saw.
Certain times of the year that area is bumper to bumper but I’m glad you got off the main roads. :-) E. TN is a beautiful state. I have only been to W.TN once but I wasn’t impressed. We were traveling and had to go through Memphis so we didn’t see much except for Memphis. Middle TN is also beautiful. I like my mountains.
