Neat places to visit in West TN?
Didn't want to hijack the thread "Ideas for Day trips in Spring" since that was about NE TN....but that got me thinking. With Spring on the way, my British sports car club will be wanting to hit the road for some day trips. Been to Shiloh and Reelfoot recently.
What are some other interesting places for a day trip from Memphis in West TN? If there's any unusually good food in the area, we like that too!

Been to Ft. Donelson National Battlefield? It's near Dover, Tn., at the bottom of the Land Between the Lakes. Once you check it out and go by the southern entrance to the LBL, you're only about 15 miles from the South Bison Range and the 1850 Homeplace.

The Natchez Trace Parkway might work.
