Nashville

I'm back!! Since leaving DC we have not had cell or wi fi reception. So I have gotten a little behind. We are in Nashville now got here yesterday. After leaving DC we stopped at Robertson Lake. It is about 10 miles outside of Lexington Va. The camp ground has 50 spots there were 3 campers there. We hiked the lake then did some kayaking finally. Spent two nights was wonderful just to relax and rest after DC. 
From Va we caught the Blue ridge parkway Its a road that runs through the Appalachians. Beautiful does not even begin to describe it. The speed limit is 45 miles per hour. This was well worth the time we took to see it. Wish we would had longer to do some real hiking.  
Camped in a FPA which are great because they only cost 8.00 with a Sr  Access pass. Did a little hiking  but was a long day of driving and to bed early
Continued down the parkway into the smokey mountains. 

Early that afternoon we found a FP in the smokey mountains and did some hiking and relaxing






Road into Nashville


Arrived in Nashville early afternoon. Was able to get tickets to the Opry. What a great show. This was a bucket list item for me. Was awesome!!


Show included Josh Abbott Band, Jim Brown, Aaron Tippin  Bill Anderson, Matina McBride and Daruis Rucker. It is a live radio show. Each entertainer does 3 or 4 songs.
Well time to get ready for the day. Head into town.
