Fried Okra

Nashville, Music City USA!

Leo and Seville almost liked this part of the trip. Leo has seemed to lose his voice and Seville found hers.

While the cats rested at the hotel we went to Caney Fork restaurant for some authentic southern cooking. Located across from the Opryland complex Caney's, as it turns out is basically a fishing lodge with a themed menu with dependable good food. My fried okra with a steak hit the spot and Kathy's Shrimp over grits with a cream sauce was amazingly very good.

Driving this way we started to see that we were no longer north nor east as we were passed by an F150 truck with designer plates "BOOTER". Kathy commented that this fellow might be perpetuating the stereotype of the country boy putting his truck and dog over his wife or girlfriend. I commented that "BOOTER" might just be his better half's name or term of endearment.

But I digress, Leo and Seville traveled well and were very social with us at the hotel. Leo is his old self crawling all over us looking for scratches under his chin and Seville prancing to and fro looking for the source of the strange smell of the cleaning products used to sanitize (we hope) our room.
