The Tri-Cities

Our first stop in Tennessee is the Tri-Cities: Kingsport, Johnson City, and Bristol in the very far northeast corner of the state. Bristol has a speedway here set up for short track NASCAR races, drag races, and dirt track races. A drag race set for this weekend was cancelled due to covid, but it is going to rain all weekend anyway. The area is called the Houston River Valley and is quite hilly. The fall colors are gearing up and the views are wonderful. We took a day trip the the Cumberland Gap National Park for some hiking. We also checked out some of the local towns as we want to settle in eastern Tennessee, although not this far north.
