We woke up super early and left Asheville, NC. We drove to the end of the Blue Ridge Parkway and stopped at the Museum of the Cherokee Indian in Cherokee, NC.  This museum was part of the Smithsonian, it was amazing. I should have become a Smithsonian member before this trip, oh well.  After that we went to an Oconaluftee Indian Village.  We were running late so it was time to get back on the road. Now we were off to Nashville. After dropping off our stuff and locking it up we went in search of Blues Music. Our first stop was the Bluebird cafe where we saw some open mike performances and Mike Henderson, a popular Nashville act. The second stop was the Station Inn, here we saw some Texas swing by a group called the Time Jumpers.
