This post didn't offend me. It was his post in the thread below about New Yorkers in Nashville where he said that people create fake profiles on CD for the sole purpose of hyping Nashville that rubbed me the wrong way...

I saw that, and yes, that's an idiotic statement.

Yeah, that was just weird.

Who has time for that?

Personally, now that I am back, I wish people would stop moving here. Traffic is bad enough...

I've been to Nashville twice and loved it twice. However, if I was going to live in the area, I would go southeast to Murfreesboro. Did I spell that right? It's probably much changed since I was there in the 1990s. Never lived in Tennessee though.

Actually, I never seen any part of Tennessee I didn't like but it took me too many years to get back to my native Texas so I guess I'll stay out here until I join the dirt.

Yes, Murfreesboro is right...and depending when you were there in the 90s, it's changed pretty dramatically.

In 1990, Murfreesboro had 44,922 people. In 2000, it had ballooned to 68,816. By 2010, it had 108,755.

It's a big town. The university, MTSU, has grown with it. It now has more than 24,000 students. It's an exurb...somewhere between it's own place and a far out suburb of Nashville. But traffic on I-24 is awful now.

Wow! We stayed on a friend's horse farm somewhere down there.

In fact, I was wrong on my dates. My first time to Nashville was in 1980. I had forgotten how long ago that was because my second trip was probably in the mid-1980s. The second trip we took a ride on the General Jackson. Both trips included shows at the Grand Ole Opry. I always wanted to see the show at the old Ryman Auditorium as I grew up in deep east Texas listening to an occasional, and very faint, WSM on my radio at night (early 1960s). I never made it any closer to the Ryman than to stand in the parking lot to get pics of the building though.

Not to mention the eyesore sprawl that is the Avenue in the 'boro. Murfreesboro |
When I first visited in 2002, there were only two high schools...the expansion has been nuts.

Oh I LIKED the Avenue! But I like all those kinds of new shopping and eatery types of areas.
