Brooke!  You'll love Tennessee!  My uncle lived in Memphis.  I live in Ohio and I drive through West Virginia and Tennesse and am familiar with the Pigeon Forge area.  IMHO West Virginia and Tennessee are the most beautiful states in the country!  I even did the "Tail of the Dragon" in my Hellcat.  Gorgeous and slow.  :aok

I'm also looking forward to trying fried whiting fish, like at Ed's Fish House.  I've never had that type of fish.

Don't really have no taste, worse than eating cod...just my opinion...now fried catfish and shrimp is the thing........

You are really not suppose to eat catfish or shrimp,  lobster etc..pork/swine..it is the healthy food laws in the Bible...

But growing up in Lexington, NC (Davidson County) we gotta have our barbecue pulled pork, bacon and country ham..and eating venison nearly every day throughout the year...

Brooke,  it's awesome to hear that you're moving to the volunteers state..I recommend you pick a place about 20 miles from downtown Nashville..somewhere like Henderson or out in the country...it's so laid back

I had started a reply earlier this morning before my daily Bible study I bet it had nearly a thousand words, I started thinking about when I was stationed at NAS Memphis and it was 976 miles from my parents drive way to the entrance gate at NAS Memphis..I would drive from home back to the base right at about  10 hours rofl

But  my dang phone died and I lost it all...I bet  I had jumped through 80+ life events hahaha

Cheers

Howdy, TC!  :aok

You reminded me -- I need to try country ham.  I don't think I've ever had that.

I see that Linwood, NC is about 7 hours from Nashville area.  I'm going to have to meet up with you at some point.  I can get you some BBQ!  :aok

I've had lots of White Castle, so I completely understand.  :D

White Castle and so probably Krystal, too, are an acquired taste, like smoking.

From time to time in my life, a friend who didn't grow up with White Castle or Krystal, gives it a try for the first time.  Almost always, the reaction is, "These are horrible!"  But I and my pals who grew up with them love them.  :aok

Surprised nobody mentioned the Jack Daniel's distillery in Nashville.

I lived in Nashville up until just under a year ago. I still have my Nashville number too lol.

It seems that there are so many people moving there that you'll find the minority of people you meet on the street to actually from Nashville.

Gator is good.  I also like crocodile which we get get from packaged farmed crocodile meat when we're in Thailand.  I've also had whiting, and like that too.   :cheers:

Nate, I think you are the source of one of the funniest things that ever happened to me in AH.

I was in a GV of some sort -- forget what exactly, but it was armored.  I had seen you flying around near me in an A-20, and then I lost sight of you.  I went back to my GV fight.  Soon, I started taking a lot of hits from something.  I looked around frantically, and just before I died, I saw an A-20 on the ground behind me, pouring shots into me.

When I'm moved in, I'll PM you my mobile number, and if you are in town, call me, and I'll take you out to lunch or dinner.  :aok
