A temple of Athena... in Nashville. Weird.

A stop through Nashville

Posted on 28 Jun ’10 by Nikki Murray

Not really having any defined itinerary on our way to Memphis, we figured we’d stop in Nashville because it was there. The thought was that if we really liked Nashville, we’d stay there longer. Turned out that one day in Nashville was enough. I’m not a fan of country music and aside from the parthenon, Nashville really didn’t have anything I hadn’t already seen in dozens of other southern towns.

on the road
travel dorkness
hello, Nashville!
crossing the bridge in
hearse at the car wash: a first for my eyes
Nashville's millennium park
pink roses
goddamn geese
like candy
like candy
A temple of Athena... in Nashville. Weird.

the anti-tourist pose
the Opry
Ryman Auditorium
not John Wayne in a dress (even though that's what this looks like, to me)
they DO exist!
not cheesy at all, nope.
and I ate almost all of it
and I ate almost all of it
Elvis is naughty

After our one day stop, we packed up our things and moved on…

Bye, Nashville!

    My name is Nikki Murray and I’m a mother of two who has been buried neck-deep in code since 1998. I presently work as a user experience and interface designer for a health IT company during the daylight hours. When I’m not freelancing during my off hours, I am prowling around with a camera or recklessly maneuvering needles.

    Also me:
