Yesterday we left here about 9:30 headed for Lynchburg. Got a tour and for some reason the odor of Jack Daniels followed us everywhere on the tour. I've never had that before and it was really strong a place or two. ANYWAY...none of us breathed in TOO much on the tour and it was enjoyed by all.
We had about a half hour to wait before we could be seated for our dinner at Miss Mary BoBo's Boarding House. They have nine dining rooms and you have eleven at your table, one being your hostess. They have large round tables with a Lazy Susan in the middle and the dishes are set on there. The hostess then turns the Lazy Susan around so everyone can take what they want.
Our guests seemed to enjoy it except Ian doesn't eat any meat except beef. The main dishes yesterday was chicken and ribs. He had a lot of maccaroni and vegetables and think he got his fill. We had a young lady from Austria and her host family at our table so that was interesting too.
After dinner we went up to the square and they got to shop and see some of the local lore.
One interesting thing about Lynchburg is they are the only town in Moore County, they are a DRY County with this Distillary right in the middle of everything and cannot sell a bottle. Well, that's not quite true, they now do have permission to sell some bottles but you cannot get a free taste there nor buy a bottle uptown.
I'm wearing out but today we go into Nashville after lunch and so some more sight seeing there, then this evening we get to go to the Grand Ole Opry in the old Rhyman theatre, something I've wanted to do for years. May be a nice way to say farewell to Tennessee for Ted and I.
