Day 1: En route to Grand Rpds., MI (Charlotte/London, Kentucky)

3:00 AM:  Awoke with a start & began reflecting on our rude awakening the other day AFTER sending in our deposit for the EGGCAMPER.  We knew it was 17' long & 88" wide, but had neglected to measure just how big this was.  I expanded my tape measure 17' from the truck's bumper & almost swooned.  Ann watched from the deck. 
"Holy Cow!  This dern thing is huge!"  I shouted
"But it looked tiny and so cute in the photos," she replied


Aghast, we finally laughed & concluded that this was a classic example of putting the cart before the horse, or in this case, the chicken before the EGG.
So off we blasted today, reaching London, Kentucky, Harlan Co., home of woebegone coal mining.  Weather due to be funky tomorrow, but today was marvelous & and drive through the NC/Tenn mountains mind boggling.  Truck is crammed with stuff, making me wish for a trailer to haul the the goods to the trailer.
Later............
