A Safe Finish to our Trip Across America

 



After driving Ashlea to the Saint Louis airport for her flight back home we went back to our Boondocker's Welcome camping spot in Edwardsville, Illinois to hook up, tell our hosts goodbye and start home ourselves. 

We traveled as far as Paducah, Kentucky and spent the night at Duck Creek, a commercial campground. The next morning we left Paducah thinking we would stop at one of our favorite BW locations in Cosby, TN for the night. As we drove eastward we began discussing the possibility of not stopping in TN but just continuing on home. After weighing the pros and cons of a longer than planned travel day we decided to drive all the way home. All was well until we got stopped in traffic in Knoxville, TN and a car bumped into the back of our travel trailer. 

On our first cross country tour back in 2008 we traveled 15,460 miles and on this trip across America we traveled over 9,000 miles and had a wonderful time.
