Nashville

We were very excited to see Greg's family!  They treated us to lots of fun, sight seeing and some amazing food!  Greg's brother got us both Nashville Hot Chicken AND fantastic BBQ! 

Even though none of their ages line up, the 6 of them get along great!

Statue commemorating Tennessee's help in getting the 19th amendment passed.

We also visited the Civil War sight, Fort Negle.  There were beautiful views of the city!   This is not our first visit to a Civil War sight together. 

 

 

 

They watched some musicals.

Hung out and played a lot. 

And of course there was Ukulele. 

We brought a puzzle to win of one cousin, fancy butter to win over another cousin, and various root beer and sodas to win over everyone else.

It was tough to say good bye!

We traveled

I know, I'm such a wimp, but we decided to mask-up and take off...

On our way to visit Greg's brother and family in Nashville, we stopped at Abraham Lincoln's birthplace.  You may remember the mistake we made a five years ago and missed it by an hour. The time zone change tripped us up. 

 2021-we made it!

2016-too late!

 

There's Yoda on the steps.   

The spring that made this location popular and valuable.

The replica cabin.

 

 

Also, 5 years ago when driving to Alabama we noticed the National Corvette Museum and thought it would be a great place to visit on our way back.  Again we made a mistake and drove back on Easter Sunday, one of only 5 days this museum is closed in a year.  It was totally worth the trip 5 years later.

Yoda wanted to find the car from when he was born. 

A few years ago there was a cave-in.  They have since rebuilt, but they have lines to show where it happened. 

My favorite car.  

And one of the cars my dad had. 
Next stop Nashville! 

Bike tune up

 While getting the bikes ready for the nice weather, Mimi took a minute to hoopla-hoop.

Who knows where Parker will be next year, and he is a little old for an Easter Egg hunt.  But he played along and we did a little photo recreation...
