I've been so elated with the return to DC that I haven't had any time, until the last couple of days, to register all the things I'll miss in Tennessee. There's our many friends (who came through in a big way to help with the loading today), and our great neighborhood in East Nashville. And the live music, although that realization came to us weeks ago when we were walking through Bethesda, Maryland and we heard the most horrible singing reverberating down the block. I don't expect the street performers to be Nashville quality, but really--did the city have to let him use an amp?
And then there's the scenery. This is the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area, about three hours from Nashville, this past April:
I have a feeling we'll be visiting again just for the hiking. We never did get around to the Smokies or Mammoth Cave...
Oy. I want to go hiking down there. That's *gorgeous.*
