Parkers Cross Roads, TN

We are in a very nice RV park here and this happens to be the site of a civil war battle.  The Battle at Parkers Cross Roads took place in December 1862 when confederate troops marched on Parkers Cross Roads with 1,500 men from the 4th Alabama, 8th Tennessee, Freemen's Artillary and the 50th Indiana Infantry.
While traveling here we stopped at a large truck stop for gas and I was out at the pump when all of sudden I was being soaked by a hose from the other side of an 18 wheeler.  The driver, a woman, you don't see that very often, was washing her windshield with a hose and washing me at the same time.  She saw what she was doing and said, sorry and kept doing it.  Duh....
