I had a really amazing summer vacation in June. My husband and I drove to Nashville, Tennessee to meet up with cousins flying in from Washington State. We have visited with them many times and enjoy their company. The driving trip brought back memories of our trip across the country in 1995. I already talked about that here.
We spent four days driving there with three overnights in Hagerstown MD, Asheville NC, and Gatlinburg TN.
We stayed in an air bnb just a few blocks from Broadway and really got to see the city with the Hop On, Hop Off trolley, and a lot of walking! The food was amazing, and sunsets from the pedestrian bridge across the Cumberland River were so beautiful.
We parted ways with one couple on Wednesday and we and the other couple headed to Memphis to listen to the music and visit Graceland. Memphis is much different than Nashville but I enjoyed the atmosphere and the music. The food was very good there too!
We headed home on Friday and initially wondered if we’d be able to make it home by Saturday evening. It was no problem getting to Roanoke VA and pulling into our driveway on Saturday evening. It was no surprise that the only accident delay we encountered was at the very end about a half hour from home!
We enjoyed the trip and would like to get back down to the Maryland area to scout out more battlefields, and are thinking of other places to go that allow us to drive and sightsee.
