I'm back in PA after my week long trip to Tennessee with Josh. Usually I like coming home after a long trip but this time I was sad to get home. I've only been home for a few hours and already I'm missing him. We just had such a great time.

We went to Memphis and saw Graceland. We got to tour the house - Elvis had a very interesting taste in furniture. I guess it was the 70's but a Jungle themed room? A little scary... We saw his gold records and some of the costumes he wore.

After Graceland we drove over to Arkansas. Neither of us had ever been there so we drove across the Mississippi so we could say we'd been there. West Memphis, Arkansas wasn't the nicest city so we pretty much turned around and headed back to Memphis. Then we decided to drive south to Mississippi. I've been there before but Josh hadn't so we drove down there for lunch. The rest of the day we spent in Memphis, walking around, listening to music and exploring.

Then it was on to Nashville. My grandparents were so excited to have us there - and so great to Josh. They didn't act like my weirdo father or my overprotective mother. Josh and my grandfather got along really well. It made things nice. We did a lot in Nashville. We went on a riverboat cruise, saw the Country Music Hall of Fame and went on a southern plantation tour. I actually have an appreciation for country music now. I'm kind of looking forward to the country concert we're doing at the swim club now!

So now it's back to reality. Day camp starts tomorrow so I'll be up early and at work helping the kids get settled in. I hope Paula tones things down a little now that she is settled in. I'm trying to give her the benefit of the doubt but she just rubs me the wrong way.

I'm sure I'll have adventures to report tomorrow after the first day of camp!
