During the last week of winter break I went to go visit my dad and his family in White Bluff, TN, about 40 mins outside of Nashville.
I drove the whole 8 hours on a Tuesday; got the tour around the area and relaxed Wednesday and Thursday; had lunch with a BYU friend, Suzy, in Louisville; stayed with AZ friend, Angelina, in Indianapolis Friday night; and made it back by 8:30am Saturday so Dan could get to work. Phew! I was tuckered out by the time I rolled back into Chicago.
Overall, TN seems beautiful: mild weather, rolling hills, lots of trees. I could only imagine how stunning it must be when the leaves are on the trees and everything is green. It's a little too slow of pace for me, but seems like a great place to visit or retire.
Sorry, these are out of order.

Met these guys (& gals?) while on a run. They came up to the fence and "bahhh-ed" at me |
