Alan Jacksons rooftop bar is really cool if you get a chance to pop in. 

Thanks ! But we’re now at my nephews lake house .

He knows his way around but only goes downtown for his guests .

You should see him park his 6.6L Duramax there ……

Nice, I think Tennessee is 100% in our future destination plans. I am sooooo sick of NY and bending over for taxes. Heck you start paying as soon as you enter the thruway.

No state income tax , low property tax, and you pay school tax once, when you buy or build a home and it’s like a grand or two . Of course great country , mountains ,lakes , a city or two to visit , super nice and friendly people .

I made the mistake of looking at my w2 and all the taxes I paid, add in my property taxes and its over $30 grand, not including a yrs worth of sales tax. 
Probably the best move the guy made!

I honestly have a hard time counting all the friends and relatives that we have that left NYS .

But this trip we visited 6 families / couples in FLA and 3 in Tennessee .

We didn’t of course have time to visit anymore in Fla., and skipped more in the Carolina’s.  The last stop in Tenn. our  friends introducing us to a number of others from our area of NY, two on there street were from Penfield , the next town over from where we live .

 Almost all are people of means , lots of money left and leaving .

Run down of the trip as we are back in NY .

A camo hat helps tremendously when in rural areas down south and driving a Subaru with NY plates .

Southern Hospitality is still a thing . I’ve never been called sir so often , and every server or person in general was super nice ,drivers don’t tailgate and let you in as soon as you put your signal on .

Anyone in Buff, Roch, Syracuse etc and thinks traffic is bad has no idea ! Try 8 lanes through Atlanta at either 80 mph or stop and go for hours …. Even Chattanooga had bad traffic with off ramps backed up for miles . Nothing like your gps saying “ stay in the five left lanes .” 

Theres so many moving down south , there’s cranes everywhere, new roads, bridges and housing going up mile after mile .

oh it’s my Bday what a sh!tty present ,to be back here

 The many gun shops and Walmart’s in several states, showed they don’t have anymore ammo then we do , with prices To match .

Nashville isn’t what it was as little as 25 years ago when I walked into Toosies Orchid lounge  got a beer and watched  the band in the little corner stage . A place where careers were made . Today’s Nashville has all the soul of Applebee’s, with the crowds of Disney world  , all these bars with “ stars “ names on the marquee are all the same cookie cutter tourists traps . I have no desire to return .

My wife loses her sunglasses a lot, I bought her a $250 pair for the trip, lost three times found two, we believe they are at my nephews lake house, he’ll check this weekend .

$400 dollar bottles of bourbon are fun to drink when I didn’t have to buy them .

Next year I invoke the Chuck rule , named after my bil, who won’t pick up guests at the airport , I put on 5 hundred miles doing that ! As some flew into the cheapest airports even if it was an hour and a half each way .

In fact we may fly  and Uber when and if needed next year , guest are on their own .

Its amazing how many places are 1000% growing and prospering where just about any NY city is a dump. NY is dying a slow death!
