Waiting out an ugly storm

We are still at Blue Springs marina waiting out the ugly storm that reaches from Chicago to Florida. yesterday we left the marina by car and drove to the Smokey mountains via the parkway to Walland,Tenn. Beautiful drive and very little traffic until we proceeded to Little River road . Traffic became crazy and cars bumper to bumper. We were glad to get off and to our hotel I had booked for the night in Kodak, Tenn. We will wait for the storm to pass over us here and head back to the boat. Hopefully we will be back on the River tomorrow headed to Hiwassee island at the fork of the Tennessee River and the Hiwassee river.
