This isn’t going to be nearly as long an entry as the last one, only because I’m really tired and somewhat sunburned, and I’m anxious to hit the sack. So, our day in brief:
-Went back into Louisville for breakfast and some quick strolling/picture taking. Tried to get into the Actor’s Theatre’s bookshop, only to discover that the “bookshop” was only open during the press weekend for the Humana Festival – and only consisted of a couple of carts in the lobby.
-Decided to forego the interstate once again in favor of the more scenic US 31-W. Lots of pretty countryside and amusing billboards (one church’s messageboard decried “FORESAKE FORNICATION!”).
-Visited the Patton Museum of Cavalry and Armor. located on Fort Knox. Lots of tanks. LOTS of tanks. Pictures to come.
-Crossed into the Central Time Zone.
-Ate in the oldest restaurant in Nashville, a real soda shoppe from the ’30s – not a recreation, the original shop. (You know how it’s the real thing? No gift shop.)
-Took a quick walk around; grabbed some pictures of the capitol building before turning in.
Between all of the driving and the time change, both of us are really beat – although I’m not “tired”, if that makes any sense. Anyhow, tomorrow it’s on to Memphis.
Welcome to our time zone!
