Nashville, TN part 1

After stuffing ourselves at the breakfast buffet Friday morning, we headed downtown for a little shopping. Eric was searching for a new pair of cowboy boots and what better place than Nashville ?? After about an hour and a half of trying on boots from store to store with no luck, we called it quits for the morning.

We headed over to Brentwood a few miles away to meet Les Neniow and Susan Hicks from Dave Ramsey's office for lunch. Susan suggested this GREAT place just a few miles away called Puckett's Groc. and Restaurant. It was such a lively place, with the best food and a southern feel.

After lunch both suggested we go and tour the Opryland Hotel, which was once the largest hotel every built. It was located next to the Grand Ole Opry, and a mall, sounded good to me!

Once we paid the $18 for parking at the Gaylord Hotel, also known as the Opryland Hotel. we headed inside to one of the MANY beautiful layouts. This hotel was HUGE, there were about 4 different areas all connected by long hallways full of lush green plants and trees. A couple of the sections were laid out like small towns, full of little shopping places. There were restaurants, bars, you name it, it was there. Such an awesome place to see.

After we left the hotel, we hit the mall for a few minutes, then drove past the Grand Ole Opry. Neither Eric or I had a strong desire to stop, so this pictures is all we have from there.

I have no idea why 3 pictures showed up?? I am working on taking 2 out...it could be awhile.

After completing our drive by nickle tour of The Grand Ole Opry we headed out to continue or quest for new boots. We landed at a huge western store and after a few misses found a great new pair!
