GOING TO NASHVILLE

Posted on 08/10/2018 9:39:22 AM PDT by DIRTYSECRET

I'll be there on election day supporting Ms. Blackburn. Where should I hang out? I'll have time to check out the Ryman, Grand Old Opry, even Knoxville. Southern belle accents are my favorite along with the cuisine.

If you do make it over to Knoxville you could check out the World's Fair.

It's a joke.

Take a side trip down to Franklin and stand amidst a very bloody civil war battlefield.

Visit Andrew Jackson’s estate at the Hermitage.

The Station Inn for bluegrass. Doesn’t matter who is playing, it’s always excellent.

If you are a car guy, go to Bowling Green, KY and tour the Corvette factory and museum.

Behold Friday’s installment of things you won’t see six-person CNN panels on. In a story published Friday morning by the left-leaning Huffington Post, reporter Kevin Robillard released video of Democratic Tennessee Congressman Steve Cohen suggesting that fellow Tennessee Congresswoman and Republican senatorial candidate Marsha Blackburn should kill herself.

“The big orange President — that’s not somebody from Knoxville. He’s going to come down here and he is going to endorse Marsha Blackburn, because Marsha Blackburn, if he says, ‘Jump off the Harahan Bridge,’ she’ll jump off the Harahan Bridge. I wish he’d say that. She will do anything he says,” Cohen declared.

Was only there a day and a half but took in the County Music Hall of Fame and ate at a pretty good place called “Puckett’s Grocery and Restaurant.” Apparently there are several of them.

Never did find Kenny Roger’s Roasters.

Actually, it’s not Nashville as i bypass all cities.

Go to love circle, it’s the highest point in the city. Best view of the city as well and it’s free. Plus you get to see that toolbag from big and rich’s house. you can’t miss it when you are up there.

There is a restaurant called the Aquarium. Great food and a huge aquarium running the length of the restaurant.

I got to go to that worlds fair, it was kind of neato.

About the only thing I remember is the brunette from the youth group I was with was kinda cute.

Okay, maybe the fair wasn’t quite as neato as all that after all..

Well, you aren't likely to run into any young ladies at the cotillion ball.
Here's what passes for a "belle" in Nashville these days:

I was in Nashville in May and did not spend enough time there.

Country Music HoF has a great exhibit on Texas Music: Outlaws and Armadillos (I believe). A little too much on Willie Nelson, but otherwise very good.

Also enjoyed the Johnny Cash Museum (two blocks from CMHoF). Small Museum, but informative. I did not know about his movie career for example.
