I have the most incredible Mom!

Mom & I on the Opryland riverboat ride.

Yes, I do. She took me to Nashville for a week for my 30th birthday present. I've wanted to go forever and her gift of the trip and a fun week with my mom is the best present I have ever received! We had a great week and both agree that it wasn't enough time to see everything. (September 2003)

And for my 31st birthday... I bought a house in this wonderful city. These have been a couple of pretty awesome birthdays! (2004)

Pros and Cons

Pros:Friendly people & so much to do & see.
Cons:Way too much roadwork!

REALLY could have used your tip re: the "move-over law" earlier. I got a ticket on my first day to work - wish me luck fighting it in court Jan 5th!

I was editing the tips and found your "Flashing red light" one. Priceless! Great tip though, not a lot of people know that!

My high school went to Nashville for our senior trip. I must admit, I was sceptical, but I really enjoyed the short time I spent there!
