Day #4 of Our Epic Trip

11-5-2023
R and R RV Campground, Dunlap, Tennessee

We got up early (mainly due to Day Light Savings Time) and took the boys for a walk during coffee time. We walked on back country roads in the hills near the campground and it was so peaceful.

We drove south to Dunlap, TN. Some of the roads Google took us on were “shortcuts” on one lane roads with hairpin turns and steep hills but we made it without incident. We have property in the mountains in Dunlap and plan on building a passive house once we are done with Our Epic Trip. While we are in Dunlap, we need to establish residency and do some work on our property.

During our drive, we had the great pleasure of meeting Leroy from Leroy’s Bread in Crossville, TN. It is a vegan Jamaican bakery. We had some great food and great conversation.

For the next three weeks, we will be staying at R & R RV Campground. It’s owned and run by Tim, who is a very nice man and loves to laugh. He provides great service too! He lead the way to our campsite in his golf cart and leveled our camper for us. That’s 5-star service! He knows everyone around him including the neighbor cows, dogs and chickens. We learned of the latest gossip on a fly-in community which may be built near our property. We ended the day by a campfire with Tim and our neighbors, John and Angel (John’s dog), and enjoyed great conversation.

Two vegans and two vegan dogs traveling the country in a camper pulled by a Tesla. We love being frugal, cooking from scratch, exploring, hiking, and meeting fellow vegans.
