Did we go back to Ohio?

Hi everyone! Today was pretty uneventful. I think the most eventful part of our day was this sight when we were leaving Nashville. 

If you have an office that needs to be cleaned call this company. If you can't read the name it says "Unicorn Castle Office Cleaning." A truly unique name! 

Then we made our way to Arkansas.



Arkansas reminded me of ohio. Flat and boring. see...


Although I have to admit, I wanted to drive down that road.


This is the hometown of the Casey Jones, don't worry we didn't drive any trains high on cocaine. 


Theres a storm abrewin' over the Mississippi!


Look at that storm! Why am I so calm?


Theres Fort Smith! Our home for the night! And its still raining! 

Like I said somewhat uneventful but we're hoping for a more eventful tomorrow. First stop Big Truck Tacos in Oklahoma City (kee-mon!), and on to the Palo Duro Canyon State Campground! Hope you're enjoying the blog! Later!

Welcome to Noshville...

Well, after several hours of searching and twitter stalking, and pub crawling I was not able to meet up with Taylor Swift. Sorry Kristen. But we had a good time walking all over Nashville. And when I say "all over" I mean all over.  Cumulative from last night all day today and tonight we walked around 20-25 miles. We got our moneys worth, but decided Nashville is not our kind of town. It just wasn't lively enough. oh well, there were plenty of good memories from this portion of the trip. Only a couple photos tonight.


Statue near our hotel that is basically just a bunch naked people with red party cups draped all over them. 


Breakfast joint: This is Noshville. 


Harry Potter Yule ball sign at Vanderbilt. 


Vandy football stadium


A better view of the stadium. 


We're in Greece? 


Cool guy in front of the Nashville Parthenon. 


This building is enormous. : O


Another handsome Dan photo for Jodi. haha


This photo is pure coincidence...


These are two great shows I will unfortunately not be able to attend. 


Dan somehow managed to get me to go to the Country music hall of fame where I found Shirley and Steve shot glasses next to each other. They were expensive though, and I didn't want to contribute to a cause that I don't support, (country music). 


LP Stadium: home of the Tennessee Titans


AT&T Building


Cool photo of Dan and the Pinnacle Building. 

I know its not a lot of photos for two days worth of walking around but we came away with more stories than pictures. Thats all for tonight, tomorrow we venture to Fort Smith, Arkansas. There probably won't be much going on there but the ride out should provide us with some material. And to our moms we won't be camping. Too cold at night with an 80% chance of rain all day and a chance to freeze over night. Thanks for reading, hope you all enjoy! keep the comments coming! 

Ps- Jodi, with the exception of Taylor Swift (because of Kristen) I haven't the slightest clue of what any country star looks like. haha sorry maybe Arkansas and Texas will prove better.

And that's what I'm dealing with.
