Road Trip 2013
Jana, friend Bonnie, and Peg left The Villages for a 9 day road trip the first of September to Nashville, Vicksburg, New Orleans, Biloxi, and Destin. The first three days were spent at Bonnie's son's and Leslie's home in Five Points, a nice neighbrhood of Nashville, from where we were given the grand tour of the city, including, the Honky Tonk bar area, Vanderbilt, the Parthenon, Grand Ol Opry, and we also attended the AAA Nashville Sound baseball game.
From Nashville we headed to Vicksburg, then to an old haunted house, LSU, Elvis' birthplace museum and home in Tupelo, New Orleans, which included Pat Obrien's on Bourbon St, Harrah's Casino, Dumonds in the French Market for beguets, trolley tour rides, then to the Beau Rivage in Biloxi for a fun time in all the casinos. From Biloxi, we headed back to Florida, staying two nights on the beach near Destin, checking out beautiful small coastal resort towns as well as partying at The Red Door Saloon with bushwacker cocktails and dining on burgers at McGuire's Tavern, where Jana had her famous peanut butter Skippy Burger. A great time was had by all.
