Arrived in Rinnè, TN for the night 24 hrs after I left home last night. I’m staying in a Mennonite rooming house. This simple little place can sleep 11 or more if needed. I have it to myself this weekend. After the long drive, it fits the bill perfectly.
Yesterday, the 1st stop Goshen, IN, for breakfast at the Lux Cafe (very good food and wait staff). Then on to, 2- 2hr appointments. I slept while I waited. Sunshine made the car toasty warm.
2nd stop Dunneville, TN, home of AndyEmma Miller. (Beautiful homestead and leathershop. I look forward to visiting this afternoon.) Dropped off Edna (her sister) and the items she brought along.
3rd stop Deer Lodge, TN, home of MiloKatie Hershberger to drop off MartinLydia, Ruby, LeRoy, Amanda R, and Amanda D. We were greeted by deer grazing around 2 ponds.
Had to search for a Catholic church for Mass on Sunday. I believe I have found one ( St. Mary’s) 35 miles away in Oak Ridge, TN 8am services.
It was an uneventful drive. Good roads, good weather, 18.1 gal average (30 gal tank) for the trip. 😊 (6 adults, 2 children (in carseats), a very full (canned goods) luggage compartment, and a hitch luggage carrier. Filled 1x in Goshen (3.05/gal), will need to fill again this morning (2.89/gal).
Know you are prayed for.
