What To Expect

Florence

While many people tend to associate complex, ancient societies with the Egyptian pyramids and Mexico's Mayan temples, there were thriving cultures from that era right here, too.

Muscle Shoals

People in Muscle Shoals like to say that music is in the water there. The area was the birthplace of W. C. Handy, known as “The Father of the Blues.” His home is one of the area’s attractions. Sun Studio and Sun Records owner Sam Phillips, also known as “The Father of Rock and Roll,” was born in Florence, just across the river.

Wichahpi Commemorative Stone Wall

The late Tom Hendrix spent more than 30 years building what has become the largest unmortared wall in the country. The mile-long wall is a monument to Hendrix’s great-great grandmother, Te-lah-nay, and her journey on the Trail of Tears.

Jackson Falls

I want to tell you about Jackson Falls now so we have some time to think about if we want to make the stop to see it. Before we get to it, we will pass She Boss Place, have an option to stop and see a tobacco farm and do an Old Trace Walk. Following that are beautiful views from Bakers Bluff.

Andrew Jackson's Hermitage

I’ve mentioned President Andrew Jackson a few times. Jackson is one of the country’s most polarizing historical figures, at least in the South.

Leipers Fork

If you haven’t spent a lot of time in Nashville, you probably think it's home to a lot of country music musicians. But there are some really big celebrities that choose to live in a bucolic, tiny town, called Leiper's fork.

The Music of Nashville

Nashville is known as Music City and with very good reason. With more than 180 music venues, Nashville offers us the opportunity to see live music every night of our stay, including at the small but iconic Bluebird Cafe.
