Wednesday 13 June 2007 - Nashville TN


Ian located the Nashville Military Museum and I went exploring. Walked toward the Cumberland River and found City Hall, the Courthouse and an observation tower. At the top was a good 360 degree view taking in the river and city. There was a detailed history of Nashville on plaques around the tower. Walked down to the river and found Fort Nashville, a replica of the original. There are a lot of deros around and they were all stretched out recovering from last night. Also saw the railway station outside of which two mounted police were feeding horses. I then zigzagged through The District back to the motel.

In the evening we went downtown for more music. Bought a cd from an excellent girl band, lead by Shelly Bush. We spoke to a street performer who informed us he was from Rhodesia. I told him that Tracy was from Zimbabwe and he gave us a copy of his cd. He works under the name Leon Zimbabwe.

Yes, Melinda, we did get to the Wildhorse Saloon for the second time and it is pretty awesome! Also a message from Ian to you...be careful flying around in helicopters that haven't got a door gunner.

Some of the other bars visited include Legends Corner, The Wheel, Full Moon, The Stage and Paradise Park Trailer Resort. All of the entertainment was excellent.
