Durhamtown Tellico Labor Day weekend

[250f4life]

I have one of those orange igloo coolers, I got a shower nozel from the garden section. I fill it up with 5 gallons and set it in the sun all day. It works awsome. I use it a lot to clean off after mnt biking.

I'm on tent site 13.

When is everybody leaving for tellico

 

[LBarr2002]

Just called up there, and there is no bath house on the property. Looks like I might have to go swimming!!

Assuming the 'Toilets' are port a jons?

 

[LBarr2002]

I guess?? I called and the lady said its VERY primitive... I didn't realize until Ken called me but Crawfords campground is only 3 miles from the park.

It's farther than 3 miles, I think about 10. Google said like 23 minutes drive time I think.

They have firewood up there for sale but the way.

I didnt look, just went off what Ken said. I wouldnt mind staying there sometime, but I def wouldnt drive my rig 10 miles on the road.

Woops, It seemed closer but that was last year. On Google its 9.2 miles.

They got TV in them cabins?

 

[VOLT]

Everyone backed out of the cabins. No, they do not have power, much less TV's.

 

[WolfGT]

Got tv at the hotel. But doesn't really matter, we will be on the trail.

 

[250f4life]

Jeep is ready to go, just gotta load it up! Come awn Friday!!

Spent all evening putting bumpstops on the cruiser and checking fluids. I need this trip so bad.

 

[Whiten]

about to go put buggy on trailer now

 

[LBarr2002]

Samurai is in rare Team #Trasharoo trim.




And Nora has finished her trailer inspection, says we're good to go.

 

[VOLT]

The Sammy is looking mean.

 

[Shilohsho]

Nora is as qualified as most clowns doing inspections.

 

[LBarr2002]

Made it to Murphy. That is not a fun tow at night... and note, online the Days Inn says they have bus/rv parking. They do not...

 

[WolfGT]

It's not too bad at the hampton.

I sure wish we could have met back up later in the day after we were refueled and ready to ride. Did you guys ride the trail out to the original Tellico? My rig actually made it back home with no problems. The first time it has ever really performed for me. I hit a bunch of stuff at the bowl and had a great time.
