Sunday, June 1

Nashville, Tn.

I'm having problems with blog site and/or my network connection. Can't upload photos very well and at times can't connect at all. I'll try to update daily. Could only upload 5 photos for today, to bad, we have so many neat shots.
We're having a great time, if you've never been to Nashville you definitely need to add it to your "bucket list". Today we went on a Graylines tour, we saw several sites we probably would not have seen. Toured to CM Hall of Fame, The Ryman Auditorium, Opry, Opry museum, music row, Willie Nelson's museum and more.
After our tour we returned to the RV park and our friends Windsor and Pam from Ohio were at the park, just for over night while on their way to Branson. The 6 0f us enjoyed a barbecue and enjoyed several bottles of wine.
Tomorrow we plan on going downtown and spend the afternoon listening to music at "Tootsies" and then having dinner at the "Wild Horse Saloon". The state capitol building
The Parthenon, the world's only full size replica of an anicent Greek temple, featuring a 42 foot statue of Athena. Built for the 1897 Exposition and it was such a hit they made it a permanent fixture in Nashville.
Here we are at the historic Ryman auditorium
Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum......Awesome!
RCA recording studio, the first studio in Nashville. Chet Atkins convinced RCA to open the studio here(or he would open his own). More #1 hits out of this studio than any other in the world. Of course this where Elvis Presley recorded the majority of his hits. The day this studio closed was the day Elvis died

Thanks for the blog update Steve. We appreciate your efforts. Must be your internet connection why the blog isn't working for you. I updated my blog this morning as well and it seemed to work ok for me. Hope you guys are staying clear of the nasty weather! We got a little much needed rain here today, but still need a lot more. Very dry! Have fun!!!
