I don't know about Blowing Rock, NC and all of that part, but I do know that I-40 runs right into the town of Lebanon and the Square is about 2 miles off of I-40. Of course Lebanon like a lot of places grew over to the Interstate just as fast as it could once they built it.

There are about 3 or 4 Lebanon area exits, depending on what part of the Lebanon area you're going to. Here are the exits
coming from your direction.

Exit 245 Linwood Road
Exit 239 Lebanon - Watertown
Exit 238 Lebanon
Exit 236 Lebanon Airport
Exit 235 Intersection with I-840
Exit 232 Hwy 109 (Leads to Gallatin)

Hope this helps

Just out of curiosity, what're you doing in Lebanon?

use to work up in Western NC and i can tell you there i no easy way to get to the Boone area.
your best bet would be to come down to 40 and go straight across

Starting on Hwy 321 from Blowing rock to Boone. Take a left onto hwy 105 in Boone (this is the red light at Wendys). Follow this to Linville and take a right onto 221. There is a large beige Grandfather mountain sign across from this red light. At the first red light in Newland take a right onto 194. There will be a flick video across from this red light. Keep straight on this road and it will turn into hwy 19E. Same road as 194, name just changes. Follow 19E into Tennessee. You will go through the town of Roan Mountain as soon as you cross the state line. In a little over 20 miles you will reach Elizabethton. At the third red light in Elizabethton take a left onto us 321/67. Follow this through Elizabethton into Johnson City. You will take a right onto Interstate 26. This will go 20 miles and you will then exit onto I-81 south. This will merge with I-40 past Morristown. This will give you fairly good road all the way to the interstate. The route that map quest sends you on 321 through Butler, TN is shorter, but is much curvier and takes longer. It is a little more scenic, as it takes you around Watauga lake. I work around Butler and have timed it both ways.
