Qc here in Bettendorf...also going to Tennesee for a week starting on Memorial Day weekend.

We were out at Scott county 2 weeks ago. My wife likes spook cave campground in Mcgregor a lot and then I get to go to cabelas.

Welcome and enjoy, safe travels!

For those that are going to Tennessee or have been. Did you power through the whole drive or did you have a stopover somewhere for a night? If so, where?

My two sisters and my two kids live close enough to Paris Landing State Park that I am staying overnight there on the way down. The way back I may just power through and come back a different route.

Powered through when drove just my truck, but will be planning a stop with the MH since we can easy now. I plan on leaving on a Friday night and making it through Indianaplolis as that was heavy last time.

We are headed south of Knoxville, not too far from Gatlinburg and PF. We hit a lot of slow down traffic on the interstate the last couple hundred miles around the 4th last year, so depending on time it might be slow going.

On the top green bar, (opposite end from the "log out" link) you'll find a link that says "user cp" Click on that, and it will allow you to enter information about yourself, including a signature block where you can list information about yourself and/or your truck and trailer.

Tubs that is just crazy talk! I usually decide last minute so I like the no-reservation aspect of pinicon and it is perfect for getting my kayak out there. I haven't been to McBride for a while though so definitely need to get there once this graduation stuff is over in a few weeks.

We camped there last year for Memorial Day weekend. It is a very nice area and the campground is nice. We were on the right fork towards the bottom. The site was not very level because of water run off and I had to use a lot of blocks. Next time I go I might start packing a shovel with me lol. The trails are very nice there as well.
