Hurricane Mills, Tennessee

We stayed at the Buffalo KOA in Hurricane Mills last night.  Hurricane Mills is the home of country singer Loretta Lynn.  This morning we drove out to her ranch and went to the Loretta Lynn Museum and walked around the property.  She and her family have lived here since about 1968.  There is also an RV Park and Log Cabins on the property.  We didn't know about the RV Park or we would have stayed there.  I'm sure it would have been quieter than the KOA.  The KOA is just off I-40 and all I heard all night was the trucks traveling along the Interstate.  It is really beautiful out on the property and we enjoyed the stop.  Tonight we are at the Nashville Yogi Bear Jellystone Park.  We will be here until Monday.  We have reservations to go to the Grand Ole Opry on Saturday night.
