I went into 2023 with a huge appetite for travel but very few plans to do so. Little did I know London was on the horizon, and while my annual anniversary trip was much tamer than usual in  humble Huntsville AL, I was so glad to do a solo Disney World trip (again), take my girls on the road for the first time to Louisiana, and have lots of Tennessee day trips in between. Enjoy this travel journal of 379 (!!!) places, including:
🖼️ 64 Museums, Gardens, and Attractions
☕️ 53 Coffee Shops
🍽️ 82 Restaurants, Bakeries, Bars, and Food Trucks
🛏️ 29 Hotels, Bed & Breakfasts, and Airbnbs
✨ and a whole bunch more!

🍕 Small regional chains with good reputations

House of Cards

Really cool atmosphere. Located in the basement of the Johnny Cash Musuem. Magic tricks are elegant, not cheesy. Strict dress code, great drinks.
