Home Sweet Home (Green Cove Springs, FL)

 

We had two fat, ugly recliners, in the rear of the coach that were in when we bought the coach used.  Well, we purchased two new recliners from Lazy-Boy to replace them.  They are slim and more to our style.  Less weight, too.  In with the new and out with the old. They rock, they rotate, they recline.

So they are not a perfect match, but neither is the price.  The one on the left is Ann’s and the on on the right is mine.  They are the same design but slightly different shades so we can tell them apart.  That is my story and I am sticking to it.

They give us more room and it opens up the area. 

Our next stop was Nashville, TN.  Well, we really liked the town.  So we decided to stay a few days.  What the heck, time is not a problem.  Our schedule is made of Jello. 

Bet you didn’t know that the number one industry in Nashville is not music, but heath care.  There are some great teaching hospitals as well as many large hospital complexes and research centers.  But we did not come to Nashville for the healthcare.  We came for the sights. 

The downtown area is lined with Honky Tonk saloons.  A Honky Tonk saloon is one that has live music and the music goes from 10 AM to the wee hours of the morning, 7 days a week. 

 

Ann had to go to “ Jimmy Buffet’s Margaretville” and have a Margarita.

We toured the original “Grand Ole Opry”  it was built as a church and later sold and turned into the The Grand Ole Opry. Now the show is held in the Opryland complex, which we did not go to see.  We will return to this town, it is on our bucket list.  That bucket list is very very long.  There is a lot to see, but we will see it all in time.

We are now sitting in a camp site in Green Cove Springs, FL (just a few miles from St. Augustine), getting our drivers licenses, voter registration and Domicile changed to Florida.  We are held up because the computers are down.  So it looks like we will be here over the week end.  Which is OK, because we have some packages being delivered to our HOME.  The weather is in the 90s.  It is hot and humid, typical Florida weather. We are in Tee shirts and Shorts.

Life is good on the Roan Road…this is not just a saying, but a true statement.
