My Trip To Tennessee

I met somebody online, through the Muncie Newspaper at the beginning of February.  He found me on there, invited me as a friend, so I accepted.  Didn't really think anything about it at that time.  He e-mailed me and gave me his phone #, so I called him that night.  We ended up talking for 5 hours that night, and at least 2 hours every day since.  On February 12, I rented a car and drove down to Tennessee to meet him.  I am so glad I did.  We really got along great.  I only stayed til Sunday morning, because of the weather. 
 He took me all around Franklin, where he lives.  Of course, I had my camera ready at all times!  I did take a lot pictures than this, just a lot of them didn't turn out very well, cause I was in such a hurry, I didn't have my camera set right!  I'm such a goober!   lol

 Then, we drove in to Nashville.  I'm glad he was driving, cause I hate big cities!  It was really pretty cool down there.  Next time I go, we'll spend more time downtown.  I just wasn't up for dealing with crowds.

This is a pedestrian bridge that goes from downtown Nashville, over to the Tennessee Titans football stadium.


Then, the trip home.  :(


  
This last picture was taken about 10 minutes south of Bowling Green, KY, off I-65.  I was driving about 70-75 MPH when I shot this!  6 hours there, 6 hours back, and only one and a half tanks of gas for the entire trip!  I rented a brand new Chrysler Sebring and what a great ride!  I didn't want to turn it back in!  lol 
Well, I don't know when I'll get around to posting again.  Haven't posted in 4 months!  Been living on Facebook!
Gonna go for now
Love Ya
