Nashville

Here's a quick summary of what we did and saw in Nashville:

The Hermitage: Home of our 7th President of the United States, Andrew Jackson.
The Parthenon: A replica build in 1897 - and the centerpiece of Centennial Park.
We ate at Jacks Barbecue. Yum!
Country Music Hall of Fame.
Belle Meade Plantation: The birthplace of American thoroughbred breeding and racing.
Riding the Natchez Trace Parkway: A 444-mile road with awesome scenery and 10,000 years of North American history. Virtually traffic free!
Cheekwood Mansion - Museum & Botanical Gardens: Home of the Maxwell House family.
