Nashville

We went to a graduation party later Friday night after the graduation.  We had fun and got to meet a few of the other grads and their families.  I also encountered the most devilish evil cake ever baked.  It had 2 layers the top was normal white cake.  The bottom was all fudge.  Thick evil mocking fudge.  I had eaten a large dinner so I just took one thin slice.  After 2 bites the cake started to mock me.  It was too much for me.  It took me out in an alley and beat me with a sock full of nickels.  I went from hungry to deliriously full in two bites.  I have never experienced anything like that before.  That cake was pure evil.  Hopefully no one had to take it home because I'm fairly certain it would have suffocated them in their sleep.  Pat, Dan, and Cherilyn all had trouble with the cake too.
The next day we walked around downtown Nashville.  It seems like a fun place.  We even got to eat at Jack's BBQ.  It was very good, even Sydney enjoyed it.  Great-Grandma got a picture of Sydney reaching for my brisket.  Besides the food the main attraction at Jack's was the picture of the Jedi Master playing pool.

We hung out with Dan in the afternoon, but he needed to pack up in order to move out so we said our goodbyes.  Then we headed over to the Grand Ole Opry Resort.  It is a very cool place.  The area inside has a river with an island in the middle.  We went to eat on the island and watched a fountain show while we were there.  The next morning we flew out once again.  Sydney was a champion traveler as before.  We had a great time in Nashville with everyone, and are looking forward to another trip to Seattle next weekend to visit Nate.
