There are so many things to see in Tennessee. I have seen the beautiful Smoky Mountains, traveled along the Music Highway over to Memphis. Have seen Graceland, Sun Studio, Stax, and the people are friendly with that sweet southern accent. It has been the home of so many talented people.

I recommend it as a vacation spot and I plan to return to see what I missed. People who are happy sing a lot - Nashville must have some happy people. I was honored that I traveled on Beale Street where some of the best blues singers also walked. I bought a purse at Lansky Bros., where Elvis shopped, stayed at Heartbreak Hotel on Lonely Street. Visited the wonderful Peabody Hotel and saw the ducks.

Next time, I would like to take a river boat ride down the mighty Mississippi. A lot of history is in Tennessee as well.
