Thank you America, we were treated well in Cleveland, Dayton, Nashville, Macon, Clearwater, Cocoa and many stops in between. Sometimes you were hard to understand but always gracious.

So far so good, Dayton.
Checked in at the hotel and was given a room. The room had a full fridge, snacks and some Valentine gifts so back down to the front desk, next room actually had people, good thing they weren't up to anything as I walked in. Third room was good. Starting to sound like the 3 bears story.

Went to the Opry again last night, they never disappoint. Today we head for Dayton just a one night stand on the way to Erin.

Yes the Ryman is impressive, and just think of all the famous singers who have stood on that stage and performed. It gave me goosebumps to think about it.

I love Broadway and the Honkey Tonks, the music is always good and if you don't like it, like you said go down a few doors and the music changes.

Have a safe one back to Ontario.

Had fish downtown at Crabby Joe's today good stuff.
Stopped in several bars for beer and live music, some very good singers, you can stand at the door and listen for a while if you like what you hear it's time for beer.
Toured the Ryman, really good tour. I didn't realize how clean the place was until I went into the washrooms, everything was polished to a shine. A really beautiful historic place.

Sounds like a nice long time doing fun things and being away from the cold. Safe travels, ICM.

We snuck though the tornadoes coming out of Florida if we can find a hole in the snow storms we'll be good.
I just discovered I drove all over Florida for 7 days with out a licence. Seems since January 1st us Canadians need an international licence for the sunshine state.

While your at the Opry you are close to EASTSIDE FISH - you should stop in and have some HOT Fish before heading back to the frozen tundra. :-)

Briley Pkwy to Gallatin Pk (turn left) then it is down a little bit across from a FAT MO's it is hidden in the back of an odd lot so you might pass it if not looking for it.

Well it's time to leave sunny Cocoa, back to Macon for one night then on to Nashville for two or 3 nights. I think we'll do the downtown again and the Opry Friday night. I wish I could drink more, Nashville is a great place to bar hop if you like good music by the yet to be famous. Lots of good food in Cocoa.

Sorry! I just got back home. Yes it does seem to rain a lot this time of year around Corpus Christie (its about 8 hours south, southwest of me) but that can be hit or miss also, sometimes it can be dry--Texas weather. There are good things to do there. We have been to the beach, the battleship, botanical gardens and conservation area. They are all nice and there are many things to do within driving distance. Lots of GREAT BBQ places within driving distance. If you like birdwatching I have a friend that goes a few times a year.

This is your thread, ICM. CC hasn't even made a comment here. What is your issue with her?

No issue with her, but in Corpus Christie the weather has sucked the last few days.

I'd like to see Texas but every time I'm close it's raining. No sense trading snow for rain even if it is warm. I was even following the Glee Club.

No issue with her I guess she's just busy shoveling snow. We are communicating on other threads.

Tex,
Last year we went, Dearborn,Nashville, Memphis, Orlando. We wanted to go from Memphis to Corpus Christi but the weather there was wet. We tried again this year but the same thing, it looked like the storm that is reeking havoc now was sitting over C.C. Is CC always like that this time of year and is it worth the trip.

I think that was the name of it but I'm not sure.
We walled up the pier and there was a bar and seats so we sat down and ate. We were so enthralled with the birds and Ocean view I never even saw where the food came from. For entertainment the Pidgins were mating on the rail it was a continuous show. At the end of the Pier the Pelicans were hilarious trying to beg fish like dogs at a dinner table.

Man I'm jealous. Had a heck of a day at work today. I would have loved to be back at Cocoa Beach. My wife wants to move there and work at the hospital but not the rght time for me. We kayaked in the thousand islands conservation area with the manatees and wild dolphins in August. That was fun. Which place did you dine on the Pier if you dont mind me asking? We ate at the Atlantic Ocean Grill which we enjoyed. Sorry about rambling on I just really miss the ocean. We will be back this summer when kiddos are out of school.

Walked 5 miles along the beach ate on the pier.
80 degrees no snow just a nice breeze.

Thank you I've never tried Cuban I'll check it out, going to check out the beach tomorrow supposed to be 80, then the Cape on Saturday, supposed to cool off to 75.

Re:Opry (Texascajun)

The wife, kids and myself ate at a Cuban Cafe La Tinaja in Cocoa Beach. It was really good Cuban food if that interests you. Enjoy your time there, I love Cocoa Beach.

Cocoa Beach, Kay's for ribs, slaw, Mac & cheese.
Not bad but not worth going back.
