We left Richmond on Thursday, spent the night in Wytheville, VA then headed to Melton Dam State Park outside of Knoxville. Our site was a challenge due to it being on the edge of the road with just enough space for the Airstream and monster truck! We had the Airstream perfectly situated and realized the hookups were too far away! So we had to maneuver again in a very narrow area....Our destination for this stop was Brushy Mountain State Penitentiary for a tour! Brushy Mountain State Pen operated from 1896 - 2009 and housed the most dangerous men in TN.…

In October while in the Lake Powell Area we explored the Paria (pronounced like Maria) River Road looking for the Paria Ghost Town located in the Vermilion Cliffs National Monument. We never found the “Ghost Town” that was abandoned in 1929. We were so surprised by the colors along this dirt road...they ranged from muted tan to vibrant orange and reds arranged in beautiful layers. The area kept our interest for many hours! https://youtu.be/rTCBm8w7FuA
