Pigeon Forge TN!
Spent the last few days in Nashville, doing the Nashville things from a walking tour guide to spending a day with Ray and Tracy who graciously opened their home and gave us a guided tour of the sub burbs. Ray was an expert on the charcoal grill, the steaks were awesome and Tracy outdid herself…

Nashville!
We have arrived at our KOA campground in Lebanon, TN outside of Nashville and will spend the next five days here. Look forward to meeting up with an old friend who moved here a few years ago after retiring from Petcoksy Plumbing and Heating, although he continues to do remote work for them. Ray has…

Peabody Hotel & Beale St.
We did both of these venues today so I will include them in the same blog. We started out at the Peabody Hotel at 5 pm to see the ducks parade through the lobby to the elevator that takes them to the penthouse every day. We were there in plenty of time but the place…

Graceland!
We chose the mid-range tour package that allowed us access to the mansion (1st floor and basement floors only; no public access is permitted to the 2nd floor), all of the museum areas of which there are several), and the airplanes, of which there are two. We arrived at 11:30, left around 6 and did…

Pyramid Bass Pro Shop!
All Stacy wanted was a pair of slippers or heavy socks for the camper. I haven’t fished in decades and didn’t hunt last year at all so all I was looking for was a souvenir bucket hat. I try to find one each time we visit a major destination, and this certainly qualifies! New Orleans…

David in New Orleans
So, funny story, but no pics. Stacy and I were walking down the street, I think it was Decatur St, when we cross an intersecting road and David meets on the corner outside of his salon. He shoves a couple of packets of cream/makeup, I don’t really know what into her hands all the while…

Memphis!!
Today was a travel day. Six hours on the road from New Orleans (Slidell, LA) to Memphis, where we are actually staying in Marion, AR! No slowdowns or accidents and even the construction areas went smoothly. And I am NOT happy! We left 50s and 60s degree temps and when we get here it’s 40!!…

Bourbon & Frenchmen Sts
We started the day with beignets and coffee at Cafe Du Monde. A perfect start. From there we wandered the shops along Decatur St and found some souvenirs before heading for Blacksmith Shop Bar on Bourbon St. for some liquid refreshment. Locals had recommended that we visit Frenchmen St as it appears to have overtaken…

New Orleans Mardi Gras!
I can tell you ONE thing about New Orleans; these people LOVE to party!! There are MULTIPLE parades on the same day even in the suburbs. They literally close off the streets and have a parade. Most are family oriented with multiple high school bands that last a couple of hours or more. Some, like…
