A Change of Plans at Salt Lick Creek (May 2021)

"The mind of a person plans his way, but the LORD directs his steps." Proverbs 16:9.

Sometimes things do not go as planned. Upon our arrival at Salt Lick Creek, Hank began feeling ill and shortly after we left the campground the following morning, Rambo began emitting an unsettling rattling sound. Thankfully we were able to proceed homeward without being delayed and somewhere on I-840 the rattling sound disappeared as mysteriously as it began!

Back to the campground - Salt Lick Creek is a COE campground located on the banks of the Cumberland River and tucked away in a rural area just outside of Gainesboro, TN. We didn't do much exploring due to our circumstances, but I did meet and talk with our next door neighbors, a couple from Franklin, TN who are on the road approximately 9 months out of the year. Our original plans included taking a tour of the I Love Lucy Museum in nearby Granville and then picking up our "Ky Grands" for a few days of camping together, however as I stated above, things do not always go as planned. Our site (#64) was right on the water and not too far from the bath house. It was rather long, and although it had a slight curve to it, Hank navigated TC superbly. I usually just stand to the side watching and marveling at how well Hank handles the challenges of parking our camper in just the right spot. :)
