Tips for the Traveler

As I have gotten older I have come to appreciate the sounds of bluegrass, gospel, and what you might call traditional country music. I am busily planning a trip that I hope to take when Pip and Sprout are eight and nine; granted, a long way off, but part of the excitement of the trip is planning and looking forward to it.

Here is my planned itinerary. Can any of you add comments, make suggestions for additional stops or tell me about your experiences? Until our road trip, I will live vicariously through you!

Stop One: The Carter Family Fold

Stop Two: Dollywood

Stop Three: Graceland

Stop Four: Grand Ole Opry

Any smaller places along the way would be a perfect way to break up the driving.

Man I love me some bluegrass! It's the music I grew up with (that and '50s rock)and I'm passing it on to my son. He loves to listen to Patty Loveless' 'The boys are back in town' and 'You'll never leave Harlan Alive'
