what on earth are you doing here?

Still feeling rough from the night before, (and now sworn off fish again for another few years,) the main purpose of today was getting to Chattanooga. its a 5 hour drive if you take the interstate, but where is the fun in that? instead i took the old highways the 64, 50 and then interstate 24. the other plus with this route is to visit a small distillery where they make the good stuff, JD. i leave Memphis at around 830 and get to the distillery about 2ish. the tour was brilliant, very interesting, and the tour guide (Billy) was a complete character. one of the best images of the day, was driving into lynchburg. as situated on the hills around the town is the barrel houses. From the distillery it was another 2 hours to Chattanooga (where i am now.) I head to cracker barrel for food and get a huge meal for less than a mcdonalds meal and a apple pie back home. 2 cokes, meatloaf, ham, chicken and dumplings, green beans, biscuits, macaroni cheese and has browns, $11!! considering the stupid prices ive been paying in Memphis, this is great, the food wasn't all that hot, but i didn't care it was tasty and just what i needed.
