Following sea kayak tour and dinner we crossed Main St over to Tannery Lane on our way to the free all day parking area. As we crossed a narrow walkway, a gentleman was playing Petunias in planters. JA commented saying the petunias were beautiful. He immediately responded with "you're from Tennessee!" He began to tell her about two different ladies that ran businesses in town. One from Memphis and one from Nashville. He laughingly said they think they've lost their accents but they haven't. They still have a twang.
The entire trip we've been asked where we were from or what part of the South. Been s great conversation starter. Met many very nice and interesting people.
