Day 1 (Ahead of schedule)
Day 1
June 22, 2006
Clarksville, MD to Olive Hill, KY (440 miles)
On the first day we planned to drive 352 miles to Charleston, WV, but the thought of arriving at 2:30 in the afternoon and spending the rest of the day sweating outside (it was 96 degrees at 1:00 PM) combined with the thought of driving 505 miles the next day inspired us to press on!
We ended up at Carter Caves State Park in eastern Kentucky. We arrived at about 4:30 and immediately went for a swim in the cool, refreshing water of the park’s pool.
After midnight, a tremendous thunderstorm blew through camp, dumping heavy rain with lightning for more than 2 hours. We were fine in our trailer, but we felt sorry for some nearby tenters who took a beating.
