CUMBERLAND GAP NATIONAL HISTORIC PARK. We are parked in one of the many rustic camp sites for RVs. It is back-in only and has only electical hookups, but it does include a 50 amp connection, so we are well set for the night, since we have ample water in our 90 gallon fresh water tank, and I emptied the holding tanks last night. Payment is made on the honor system, with small envelopes at the entrance and a sign describing prices for various sites. Since this is associated with the national park service, we got a senior pass discount. Thus the night costs only $10. It is interesting getting in here, driving around loops looking for a site of choice. We ended up with a nice level site, even though the Jeep has a rather secluded home for the night (see photo below).
Getting here from Greenville was a challenge, since I-26 and I-40 are VERY mountainous, with steep climbs and descents, winding left and right. Combined with too many big trucks vying for the same space and road construction, it was bumper-to-bumper for about an hour at one point. Very frustrating. I made a note never to drive that route again in a motorhome.
