There's nothing like a bowl of hot soup during a rain storm. However, we didn't think even a truck load of Campbell's Chicken Noodle, Chunky New England Clam Chowder, and Spaghetti O's would be enough to ward off the effects of Hurricane Hannah so we bugged out from Maxton, North Carolina to Scottsville, Tennessee just ahead of the storm. We could tell it was coming as the sky was starting to fill with dark clouds and the humidity went sky high.
Our route took us over the Appalachians and the Great Smoky Mountains in Kentucky. For such small mountains (the high point of the trip, the Eastern Continental Divide, was just over 2,100 feet of elevation) it was slow going with steep grades and winding roads.
We're sitting now at the Dollar General warehouse waiting for a dock to unload the soup. Since we're just about at our 70-hour driving limit, we'll be taking the rest of today and tomorrow off. We're thinking about heading into Nashville for the evening. We'll see...
