Day #5 of Our Epic Trip

11-6-2023
R and R RV Campground, Dunlap, Tennessee

Ahhh… Tennessee is glorious! It’s a beautiful day with a high of 73°F. We went to Pikeville, TN to pay our property taxes and get paperwork to establish residency. Everyone is so nice here. Then we drove to our property to see if there is a mailbox. The previous owners lived in a tent on the property for a year. Alas, no mailbox.

Next we went to Dunlap, TN to get our mail at the post office. Then we stopped by the Sequatchie Co. Library and got library cards. Yay! We love libraries and typically visit libraries when we travel. Next stop, Driver Services Center in Jasper, TN for drivers licenses. We needed a lot of documentation but we were granted residency. To celebrate we went to a dog park and grocery shopping. For some reason, our boys don’t really like dog parks. You would think they’d want to run and play but they just smell things and then hang out with us.

On the way home we admired our property from the valley. It’s just so pretty here and we feel blessed to call this our home.

We had a fabulous meal of homemade food. We find that we enjoy our own cooking so much more than restaurant food now that we are whole food, plant-based. A salad of baby spinach, kale, broccoli and chickpeas with an okara dressing is very filling. We are going to start posting recipes soon.
