Leaving our home base in Loganville, GA, on Monday morning, October 1.
Arrived at Meriwether Lewis Campground in Hohenwald, Tennessee on Monday evening. This campground along the Natchez Trace Parkway corridor is free, primitive, and available on a first come, first serve basis. There are clean, well maintained toilets, but the campground does not offer electricity, showers, or dump station. The setting, however, is beautiful and quiet. We stayed for one night in a pull thru site with plenty of room. (GPS: 35.5225, - 87.456)
Our traveling cats (all three of them) are quite content on the highway in our truck, but they especially like looking out of the windows of our Airstream once we are settled into our campsite.
After traveling most of the day, Oct. 2, and spending a night in a Walmart parking lot somewhere in Missouri, we arrived at Lamar City Park in Lamar, Missouri. This is a 56 acre park maintained immaculately by the city of Lamar, with walking paths, playgrounds, streams, athletic fields, as well as an RV park at the west end.
Fun facts: Lamar's first constable (sheriff) was wild west lawman, Wyatt Earp. It was Earp's first job in law. But Lamar's most notable native son is President Harry S. Truman.
