North Carolina to Texas By Way Of Birmingham

We left Mooresville, North Carolina this morning headed for Wake Village, Texas. I shot this picture as we came through the Smoky Mountains.

I thought we were going through Little Rock and we might even spend the night in our own bed. Somewhere before we got to Nashville, Tennessee we heard that things were icing up around Little Rock, so we headed south to Birmingham, Alabama. I was hoping we would get farther along on our journey, but Birmingham is as far as we got. We spent the night in the Howard Johnson. Now we still have a little over 500 miles to drive tomorrow. At least it's warm down here and no ice.
