Tennessee
 
Has anyone gone to Nashville, Gaitlinburg and Memphis in the spring?
Curious as to what the weather is like.

We did two years ago.
Memphis
Don't miss Sunday Brunch at The Peabody and see the ducks
Gus's Fried Chicken
Blues City Cafe
Rendevouz
Spend the better part of the day with Elvis

Nashville
Country Music Hall of Fame
The Loveless Cafe (breakfast, lunch, or dinner)
Las Paletas (all the sale is popsicles--awesome)
The Hermitage (Andrew Jackson home)

We then continued on to Mammoth Cave and Corvette Museum in Kentucky. Had a great time.

Don't forget Chattanooga! It has a great downtown with neat shops and restaurants - the aquarium is fantastic and would be a great end to a Memphis - Nashville - Chattanooga visit! I would add Cheekwood in Nashville for the beautiful grounds if you like gardens and both the Brooks and the Dixon art museum if you are interetsed in art in Memphis. We loved the Peabody in Memphis!

I live in Memphis and Spring is always very nice. I agree about The Peabody. Also you can check out Graceland and the Zoo is very nice. Have been to Nashville alot and like it too and the weather is almost like Memphis. Now Gatlinburg in the Spring has to be the best. We go every year in April and love it. The weather is nice and the flowers are starting to bloom. Here's some picture of Gatlinburg and The Great Smoky in the Spring. Have fun and enjoy.
