We toured downtown Nashville today on a walking tour (about 2 miles).  We saw some great historic buildings as well as the newer ones.  We ate dinner at Rippy's (top photo) on Broadway.  There was live music and we thoroughly enjoyed it (middle photo).  Everyplace we walked past there was live music and it was so fun to hear it.  Then we went to the Ryman Auditorium (bottom picture) where the Grand Ole Opry was from 1943-74.  Then it was renovated and reopened in 1994. -Ann
