Doing That Thing I Do....Life as a Nashvillian: Franklun and Nashvull

Well howdy everyone from the great state of TN! I arrived here on Thursday evening after about a 14 hour drive spanned over 2 days. Previously to this trip, I had never driven farther than 3 hours in one sitting. ha! It really was not as hard as I had predicted. I made a killer playlist and listened to about an hour of The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring. I regret not having updated in a really long time but I was really busy with moving out of College Station *tear* which my last blog circulated around. Then I was trying to move back into my bedroom at home which was difficult because I have way too much stuff. I am trying to simplify my life a little bit. Then we went to Boston to visit Liese and Phil. Anyways, I am somewhat settled in here at my host home. I still have some unpacking to do. I only unloaded my car this morning so I was living out of my car for 3 days literally. I am not a fan of it---not something I'd ever choose to do on purpose. I already have learned how to get around the Franklin area decently well and I went to visit Valerie in Nashville today. I got myself back "home" from Val's house without using Alfred, my GPS. I was proud of myself. Anyways, to make a long story short, I was also busy with preparations for one of my best friends, Kristen's wedding last week. She got married to Jeff on Sunday and it was a blast! On my way up to Franklin on Thursday, I stopped in Memphis and went to tour Graceland. I came to find out that this is Elvis week because the anniversary of his death is tomorrow. Tourism was up as a result. I had a good time and it was neat to see "the King's Cave" hahaha. I shall try to post pictures of Graceland once I get my pictures loaded onto my computer. I guess that is a shortened version of the past 3 weeks or so. Here are a few pictures!
