Movin' on Up......to a campsite instead of a parking lot. Stayed at Nashville Country RV Park...very nice. Made phone contact with friends from home that are in Nashville visiting family. Cory & I took a bus tour: Nightlights of Nashville. Great time! After dinner and seeing the sites, we were left on our own to visit the night spots for 3 hours. My photos show only a sample of what we saw and did. Our driver was 77 years old and crusty. Gave a good tour but drove like a maniac. I shall never comment again about Cory's driving skills...he is PERFECT - nothing like Traffic Tear-Thru TEX. We needed a pop in every bar to calm our nerves. I need to share our dinner with you. Tex took us to Ribbby's...BarBQ. We never select that but here it was "eat or shut up" . We ordered pulled chicken. Meal came in a basket with biggest chicken rib piece I ever saw. I told the waitress it didn't seem right...ribs bigger than "Yellow Bird's" . She said those WERE ribs and there was our chicken: a small pile of chicken meat strings. There was a pancake in the basket so I figured you put the chicken strings in it & made a wrap. WRONG...pancake was fried cornbread...who would have known? The seven black tourists from England who sat with us, of course, thought we knew what we were doing so they made wraps also. "When in Ribby's, do what the Americans do..."

Heading to Red Bay today.

Her name was Kelly - she liked us a lot. Called Cory "old man" and stuck 18 straws in my drink! Carl was polite.
