Last summer we did our trip down through Ohio to Kentucky and Tennessee for 5 -6 weeks and we really liked Nashville, which surprised us. I say that because neither of us are fans of Country music but we went to the Grand Ole Opry and it was quite enjoyable. Trace Adkins was the only person I had heard of and he was the headliner. He was there along with 5 or 6 other acts/singers and they each went on stage to do 3 songs so if you didn’t like one act, just wait a few minutes!

Me outside having a bourbon before we went in for the show 
We had great seats, front row in the balcony 
They also had big TVs on either side of the stage.
We had tickets to do a tour of the Ryman, which was the original Opry house but the day we went there they told us it was closed for private event and we were leaving the next day. We were able to get our money back but still aren’t sure why they sold us tickets three days before this event happened, they must have known.

There is so much to do in Nashville, it would be hard to be bored. We did as much as we could while we were there. We stayed at a KOA campground about a 20-25 minute drive from Nashville but only 5 minutes from the Grand Ole Opry. The KOA had a shuttle that ran continuously from 9 am to I believe midnight. Entrance to KOA Nashville below. It was not as expensive as I thought, we paid $87 a night, which was not bad.

Next post, we’ll see some of the other places that we visited when we were in Nashville and I believe we were there about 6 days.
See you soon………
