Chattanooga was the first bigger city we stayed in since New Orleans and a great example of how modern the south can be.

Many people looked at it, a couple older men who wanted to live in it in their yards while they worked on their houses, a couple who wanted it for a mobile kitchen but found no way to get a full size fridge inside. One girl had been living in a warehouse with some people … →
