Honky Tonkin' through TN

Nashville

Broadway. This was my first visit to Music City. Great music at almost every bar (even at 10am in the morning.} Our favorite music that day was at Legends Corner!

Nashville history… Old Christ Church, Union Station (now an Autograph Hotel), the Woolworth’s on 5th - the location of the 1960’s lunch counter sit-ins (we had lunch at the counter!)

Franklin, TN

This is a very cute and historic town south of Nashville. An old Magic Chef oven factory was converted to retail shops, they have a beautiful Main Street and there is lots of Civil War history. Franklin was one of the later Civil War battles. It resulted in 10,000 casualties (mostly confederate soldiers). 44 homes and buildings in town were converted to field hospitals for many months. Many of the confederate soldiers are buried on the Carnton plantation. That cemetery was established and maintained by the family of that home.

A Special Thank You!!!!

When we started out with our crazy plan to sell the house in Chicago and buy an RV, Cathy and Joe Moore were a HUGE help to us. Cathy is a very passionate RV guru….she was able to help us navigate the purchase of our new RV, get started, travel ideas and trip planning. Joe and Cathy have been amazing resources to us - we had such a wonderful visit with them in Crossville, TN.
THANK YOU CATHY AND JOE (and ZEVA)!
