Finished booking our trip to Tennessee for June
Well it sux that we cannot go to the Goshen rally this year but we did manage to finalize a trip to Tennessee to go to Memphis, Nashville, Pigeon Forge and then to Indianapolis to the speedway and home in June. Wanted to be on the road abit longer than the 10 days we have but with so many other things that we have on the go this year that was the best we could do. We have all the cg's booked and paid so the rest is a walk in the park now.

Ya pretty good hauls on the travel days as we usually run 12 hr days. We leave at 6am when traveling and plan on going from here to Minot on the Friday as we are leaving after work, then going to Omaha the 2nd day and Memphis on the 3rd day.

Safe travels...hope you enjoy Tennessee.
Since middle TN is home for us, we like to venture out to other places...would love to make it to Canada and/or Alaska this year. Too bad, you don't have more time. You could spend a week in the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg/Smoky Mountain area. Out of all of the state, the mountains are our favorite part. :-)

X2 Our kids were Duck Masters at the Peabody in Memphis, a few years ago. There's a bbq place across the street and down the alley, name slips my mind at the moment. Historic place, the memorabilia is what you go for, but the food is not bad. Middle, TN is home to an aquaintance of mine, Johnathan Cain, from the band Journey. Great guy! Nashville is a 5 hour drive for us, but we do it all the time. Love the city! Enjoy your trip and safe travels!

Traveling to Tennessee? Do you have an Iphone? Tennessee just put out a Pocket Ranger APP for the State Park System. I live not far from Nashville.

The Smoky Mountains are awesome and cover 2 states. One could spend a month here and still miss quite a bit.

I believe that the place you're trying to remember is Rendezvous BBQ.
