WE SPENT A LEISURELY MORNING AT CAMP & THEN HEADED BACK TO CHATTANOOGA TO SEE THE 2 SIGHTS WE WANTED TO SEE THAT WE RAN OUT OF ENERGY TO SEE THE DAY BEFORE
WE STARTED AT BRAINERD MISSION CEMETERY
The Brainerd Mission was a Christian mission to the Cherokee in Chattanooga, Tennessee. It was established by the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions in 1817 and named after David Brainerd
IF YOU'D LIKE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE MISSION, HERE IS A LINK FOR MORE INFO

| WATER PARK, WITH NO WATER. HOW SAD |
WHILE LOOKING AT THE WATER PARK AND THINKING HOW WONDERFUL IT WOULD BE TO WATHCH/PLAY IN THE FOUNTAINS (ALL THE ANIMALS WOULD HAVE HAD WATER SQUIRTING FROM THEIR MOUTHS) A SECURITY GUARD CAME TO US (THAT REMINDED ME OF NEPHEW LUKE) AND VERY NICELY INFORMED US NO PETS ARE ALLOWED IN COOLIDGE PARK. HOW SAD THAT IS THAT DOGS ARE NOT ALLOWED IN A PARK..... HE EXPLAINED THERE WAS A 63 ACRE PARK ADJACENT TO COOLIDGE AND OTIS COULD GO THERE AS IT WAS A GIANT DOG PARK. WE OPTED TO JUST HEAD BACK TO CAMP AS WE WERE TIRED TOO.
