… well our road trip went on Visiting Brent, we all met his very charming wife and had a look at his Wonderfull collection beyond words.

Then we pressed on to Nashville.
And you can't visit Nashville without seeing some of it's rich music life.
So we visited the Country Hall of fame and Johny Cash museum, and if you like that kind of music it's a must go, we loved it.



We also did the Nashville store of one of my favorite  tv programs "American Pickers"
The old Marathon factory alone is a Wonderfull side to see…

The store was smaller than I thought, and Frank and Mike where on the road again the woman behind the counter told me.
But at least this tells me we are going to enjoy more programs on tv…

After we left Nashville on our way out we stoped at the Hermitage, the house of 8th president Jackson.
A real adviser to do if you are in the neighborhood.


We just crossed the border from Nashville to Alabama on our way to visit Benny, where we just saw one of the steam engines from the 1960, an atlas B1 rocket, next to the motorway.



And an expert wrote a comment on the information table about the moon landing


Also Benny gave us a warm welcome, and showed us his collection, in the ultimate man cave, again as was Brent's, a super collection.

To be continued…

Cheers,
Danny
