What better way to explore a new city then taking in some local nightlife? Especially in a place as rich in music culture as Nashville!
We went to the main drag in the downtown Broadway Historic District, also known as the Honky Tonk Highway, to check things out. It did not disappoint. The live music scene is truly incredible, literally pouring out of every open doorway, just beckoning you to come in and stay a while.
You also can’t walk into one of these venues and
shops without seeing some amazing memorabilia, photos, and art. We saw some of Loretta Lynn’s original performance costumes (swoon), signed guitars, and so much more.
We saw two great bands perform and got to unwind a bit. However, after opening session and hitting the Exhibit Hall (and THEN the FedEx in our hotel to ship all our books and goodies back home), we didn’t stay out too late. These four librarians had been up since 4:00 AM, traveling from Texas. Way too pooped. Not to mention, we needed an early start today for a jam-packed first full day. That said, we might make another visit tonight and see what else we can discover!
