G&G Off The Grid

Making our trek back to Iowa City, last night our stop was in Nashville, TN @ a campground where we were ON the grid. We looked, in vain to find a Harvest Host spot, but there were none in the area we wanted to be near. After having showers we drove in to the city to attend a performance of Thankskilling, the musical @ the Street Theater Company where our nephew, Randy Craft, is the Executive Artistic Director. Before the show, however, Jim & I walked a few blocks to a shopping/restaurant area to have dinner. We ate @ a place called PennePazze. Our meal was delicious! Then back to attend the performance. It was very different but very entertaining. Funny, a bit on the raunchy side, but with a comical delivery. The talent was phenomenal! Afterwards Randy gave us a behind the scenes tour, which was great. Then we went over to Randy & Alex's (Randy's husband) home and Randy schooled Jim on fine Bourbon, which he has a huge collection of. Guess who was the designated driver this time? Rarity, right? It was a great evening.

We have now moved on to Kingsland, Georgia & are Harvest Hosting @ a Golf Course/ Country club. Pulled in shortly after noon & got set up. Went in to the club house restaurant & had a delicious lunch. I ordered a Buffalo Blue salad & Jim got the fried Grouper basket with onion rings. Both were excellent! We sat out on the patio, as the day is perfect. Jim is now making bread, cause we can't be without his bread for toast. Will probably run into town in a bit, but at the moment a nap may be in our future.

Tonight we are in Manning, SC at a golf course. Before we got here, we stopped in town & joined the Anytime Fitness Club with our Silver Sneakers benefit (which means for free). I did the treadmill for 2 miles & Jim did weights. After our workout, we walked the downtown area. As with every other small town downtown we have passed through, it is a ghost town. Really sad when you see these beautiful old buildings basically shuttered up. If there is anything still alive in these buildings it will be either a lawyer’s office or an insurance agency.
In order to patronize the golf course, we went in to the bar & had a drink. We would have ordered food, but they don’t have any. So, tonight it will be Sloppy Joe Spaghetti Squash bowls, compliments of Weight Watchers. One of our favorite meals. They have a Seniors tournament here tomorrow, beginning @ 10 am, so we will be pulling out of here prior to that.
Pictures to follow.
