Vacation

We visited Belle Meade Plantation and Winery in Tennessee yesterday, and also attended a wonderful show at the Grand Ole Opry. Our Belle Meade visit began with a food and wine pairing. We got to taste 5 different wines, paired with some very tasty foods. Like every wine tasting I’ve done it went from light to dark to dessert.  And they paired these wines with some local cheeses and local chocolates among other goodies.

The Belle Meade mansion and plantation was awesome. What a beautiful home with an interesting history as a Mecca for race horse breeding.  I highly recommend this as a place to check out in the Nashville area.

On the beautiful grounds were black walnut and magnolia trees.  These magnolia blossoms were as big a dinner plates and they smelled lovely.
