Nashville




so here's the dealio... last weekend my friends hope and JP and i packed hopes little ford focus and started the nine hour trek to Nashville, Tennessee... i just realised how much i dislike typing or writing the word Tennessee... i don't know why... anyways, we packed up and drove to see our good friend Brian at Belmont University... it was such a nice trip... we had no plans or expectations and i think that sometimes, that makes for the most fun... spontaneity(not sure if i spelled that right) is the best way to run things sometimes... we left here(northeast Ohio) at around 2 pm... we got there after midnight due to the GPS taking us the wrong way a few times.... like to the ghetto of Cincinnati... i hate typing Cincinnati also... but we ran a bit behind and didn't get there until like 11:45 pm Nashville time... but it was nice to see Brian... also, it was kind of awkward the first night because Brian and hope ended up staying in the car the first night... girls cant be in the dorms after 1 am... and due to the lack of a better place to sleep, they slept in the car... so JP and i stayed in Brian's dorm with his room mate who we just got to meet like 3 hours before... kind of weird... but not too bad.... i think if i were going to go back then i would get a hotel room, not because i found it unbearably awkward but because i felt that i was in the way more then anything... anyways... but ill tell you this... Nashville has some of the best eating i have experienced in a long time.... amazing restaurants with amazing food around every corner.... also there were some awesome coffee shops... i pretty much drink coffee every chance i get so this was awesome to me... Nashville also boasts tons of tourist attractions like parks, stores, and just about anything else you want to see in one weekend... i am going to put some pictures on my photo blog, but i leave a couple on here just to give you an idea of what we did... anyways... i think this might be my current record for writing posts... 2 posts in 2 weeks... and due to my previous post, i seem to have a lot of time on my hands to write posts... so expect more and thanks for reading....

Oh Brad, its always good to read about your ventures, even better to be on them with ya, but still fun to read. Did you make sure that Hope's car didn't have "Honky" spraypainted on the side? That Damn Garmin!
