2011 Good Family Road-trip - Part 3

On our way back home we first stopped in Little Rock, Arkansas to stay and visit with the Halfhill family. Andy and I go way back to high school but also reconnected at summer camp and then we lived down the block from each other in Ohio after college. Crazy, huh?! Andy has a lovely wife, Hannah, and two beautiful kids Micah and Selah. Sam and Micah hit it off right away and loved playing together! We drove around the city, took a big walk over the Big Dam Bridge and ate some awesome BBQ. We loved spending time with them!
Next we stopped and stayed in Nashville, TN. We walked around town and enjoyed seeing all of the little honky tonk bars. The best part of the day was touring the Country Music Hall of Fame. The kids didn't think it was great, but we did. We didn't have nearly enough time and can't wait to go back...it was the best museum I have ever been to...so beautiful and had really interesting stuff!
Finally, we stopped in Cincinnati again and was treated to a home-cooked meal by my friend Michelle. We stayed overnight and the next morning went to her friend's house (who lives in an AMAZING old house that was once a school/camp in the late 1800's) to go swimming. From there we left and stopped at Skyline Chili (our most favorite place) for dinner and then arrived home that evening.
We had such a great time seeing that part of the country, spending time together and connecting with old friends! We are thinking that this might become a yearly event :)Sam was running on the bridge in LR and fell...ouch!
