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.
It's a joke.
Walking around Gaylord Opryland Hotel
Have a meal at Monell’s. Great family-style Southern cooking.
Downtown Nashville at night.
Lane Motor Museum
Country Music Hall of Fame
Drive a hour, each way to Lynchburg, for Jack Daniels tour.
Take a side trip down to Franklin and stand amidst a very bloody civil war battlefield.
Visit Andrew Jacksons 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 Fridays installment of things you wont 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 thats not somebody from Knoxville. Hes going to come down here and he is going to endorse Marsha Blackburn, because Marsha Blackburn, if he says, Jump off the Harahan Bridge, shell jump off the Harahan Bridge. I wish hed 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.
I avoid Nashville every year on my way south. :)
Actually, it’s not Nashville as i bypass all cities.
Loveless Cafe for breakfast.
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.
Yep, also a fascinating battlefield Just outside of Murfreesboro.
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..
Don’t forget to vote.
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.
Bring your wallet, everything is ludicrously expensive here now.
