More Tennessee

October 6th we left Nashville and headed for Memphis. We made an unplanned side trip to the Battle of Shiloh, from the Civil War. It was a big battlefield and we drove all over seeing where the different soldiers stood and fought in those few days. Very moving.
We drove through Adamsville, home of Sheriff Buford Pusser (from Walking Tall).
The morning of October 7th we visited Graceland, home of Elvis. Being an Elvis fan this was very moving for me. We hadn't planned on it but drove all day, through Arkansas and Missouri, and made it to Branson.
We had a great room and saw several shows in the few days we were there. We had dinner at the Dixie Stampede (a Dolly Parton show), saw Paul Revere and the Raiders and then Bill Medley (the Righteous Bros.). Fun show. Next day we saw Shoji Tabuchi, a Japanese fiddler and comedian Jim Stafford that night. We haven't been out that much in 20 years.
We left Branson October 10th heading north. We were eating Breakfast in Springfield, Missouri and decided we were ready to head home so changed direction and drove all day to Council Bluffs, Iowa and spent the night.
Got up early on October 11th and headed through Omaha, Nebraska on through the rest of the state of Nebraska, into Wyoming. We are spending tonight in Caspar, Wyoming. We will head for Jackson tomorrow to visit our daughter and newest granddaughter for a few days before heading home a few days earlier than we planned. Can't wait.
