April 3, 2013

Good morning everyone.
Looking forward to driving up and down hills and around curves. After driving in the Florida flatlands, this will be a welcome change. Thank goodness for hills...now I can see things in the distance and where I am going.  Went to the Grand Ole Opry for a backstage tour...not because we are country fans, but because we like history.  We arrived in Nashville and stopped at the visitors center.  Later we tried to extend our room to Friday night...No chance.  You would have thought that Elton John was coming to town.

 Roy and Minnie at the Ryman Hall



 A lost art still happening here.  Still many boots to shine

 

 Where is my good friend John B when he wants to buy a pair of boots?



 Coming up soon at the Grand Ole Opry...but not tonight.



 Took the opportunity for a photo.  Cameras being passed around several times






 The $1.98 tag was lost in the flood in 2010 but otherwise still in good shape






 We got to hear Jeannie Seely tonight at the Nashville Nightlife theater.  Will also see her tomorrow at the Ryman.



Tomorrow the walking tour of the city.
