Mountain City, TN yesterday, population 2,408. Tonight, Nashville, TN, population over 600,000. A bit of a difference in the traffic to say the least.
The weather was good again today for our travel. We left Boone, NC at 9:10 (EDT) where we stayed overnight and arrived in Nashville 4:10 (EDT) (but we saved an hour as we're now in the Central Time Zone so new time was 3:10. After a QUICK change at the hotel we headed for Nashville toward the Grand Ole Opry. We ate at a restaurant called Tony Romo's, REALLY good food.
The Opry was very enjoyable, lots of old-timers (and some new) but the music was fa

miliar and enjoyable. And yes, Little Jimmy Dickens is still very much alive and kicking at age 88!! Other performers of the night were The Whites, Mandy Barnett, Charley Pride, Connie Smith, Jim Ed Brown, Mel Tillis, Pam Tillis, Bill Anderson, Jean Shepard and Tracy Byrd, along with several I didn't recognize. Tomorrow we're catching up with Linda's friend from high school for some sightseeing of the area. Then Monday heading to Memphis and Graceland.
I'm tired tonight. It's been a busy day. Didn't sleep well last night so hopefully will make up for it tonight.
