Heyen's on the roll again . . .

Starting our day around 9:00am, we headed SouthWest of Nashville.
We traveled 477 miles and was out on the road for about 11 hours today.
We found 3 more TN State Parks to visit . . .
31) Big Hill Pond State Park

32) Chickasaw State Park

33) Pinson Mounds State Archaeological Area

Our first stop was at Big Hill Pond. This TN State Park was
very peaceful and the 'Pond' was very soothing. Surprisingly,
there were no other visitors at this park while we were there.
Chickasaw State Park was also a quiet park with a small lake.
As the temperature rose and the day began to fade, we made it
to our last destination of the day, Pinson Mounds. The largest
part of this park is used to raise replacement trees for other
parks and forests.
