Today Jim and Karen took us to downtown Knoxville to checkout the sights. Knoxville is the home of the University of Tennessee. Now this town goes on steroids when there is a home game. There was orange and white (the teams colors) every where. Every person we met or passed had in some form those colors on. Randy and I didn't have any orange so we wore white. Jim felt sorry for us and gave Randy a cap to wear.
 

Randy, Sherri, Karen, Jim.

 

 Even the Port O Potty is orange.

 

The Tennessee River runs right by the city and the stadium is near the water front. Boats come from all over up and down the river and tie up just outside the stadium. Some people go up to the stadium to watch the game but most stay on their boats, turn on the TV’s and have one big party.

 

The stadium is on the right beyond the bridge.

 

After our walk downtown we went to Jim and Karen’s house for dinner and spent the night there. It sure seemed weird to be on land for so long.

We had a nice laid back morning with our friends then headed back to the boat. On the way back we stopped at a park to get in a nice long walk. (more of that exercise stuff)

We had a couple of small maintenance projects to get done and then it was time to give the Porsche back. One last dinner with Jim and Karen, then we said our goodbyes. Or maybe I should say see you later. They will be joining us once we get to Florida to cruise part of the way with us.
