Day 2 - Making It Big In Nashville

The second day of travel was pretty much the same as the first. We travelled another 400 or so miles in about seven hours. As we have done the route from Christiansburg, VA, to Nashville, TN, many times we didn’t have any sightseeing planned, but that didn’t stop us from discovering a few interesting things. When we stopped for lunch, we just happened to find a Russell Stover candy outlet right across from where we ate. OK, technically we stopped for the candy outlet and then had lunch after but that makes it sound like we are candy hounds. OK, so technically we are. So what?

We did buy a 3 lb. box of “bloopers” at the outlet for Jeanne’s mom (along with some other items for the trip) and they enticed me to join their frequent purchase rewards club by offering me a free box of candy and a handy tote bag. I can be bought very cheaply.

As you can see from the picture, music is very big in Tennessee. That has to be the World’s Largest Guitar. It is located in Bristol, TN, just as you cross the state line from Virginia. I believe it used to be a music store, but it looks like it is in a little bit of disrepair today.
