That happens when you haul something with a bathroom.<br /><br />I schooled in W. TN by Memphis for a few years and I never did figure out what some of them were saying. After that, TX seemed quite normal.becki-chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02469536334449247839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668309074831860072.post-15753893026630445072010-08-20T15:47:23.185-05:002010-08-20T15:47:23.185-05:00Mary Beth - Yep.... lov them 'maters!

All soft drinks are called a "Coke", or a cold drink.<br /><br />I remember when I-65 stopped at Harding Place, and I-24E stopped at Old Hickory Blvd near Hickory Hollow. Both were continued on to Birmingham and Chattanooga in the very early 1970s.Doris W. in TNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00510857815095094456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668309074831860072.post-72513222848769373232010-08-20T12:40:32.685-05:002010-08-20T12:40:32.685-05:00I took my friends father who had early alzheimers ...I took my friends father who had early alzheimers to DQ and got him a waffle bowl of ice cream cherries, whipped cream and nuts..he ate 1/2 of it and looked at me and said 'that's the best thing I ever ate.'...and finished the rest and said that wasn't bad either..<br />too bad you couldn't swing down thru west..yellowdoggrannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14906624317290990109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668309074831860072.post-18010475565176439742010-08-20T12:05:23.191-05:002010-08-20T12:05:23.191-05:00I am sitting here LMAO at the language accent!!!!!...I am sitting here LMAO at the language accent!!!!!! so funny.<br /><br />You two rock opening Walter's RV so people could go to the bathroom....How very kind of you both!nitacrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17718319669087951975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668309074831860072.post-76144136573976786822010-08-20T10:10:21.418-05:002010-08-20T10:10:21.418-05:00Welcome to Middle TN!

BTW: east TN, middle TN, and west TN have different language patterns and words, very different cultures. After all, Hwy 40 was only completed in the mid-60's, first trans-TN Hwy. Then there's this matter of how TN came to be a part of the Confederacy...Mary Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15993119284461804515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668309074831860072.post-28922319307466032572010-08-20T09:01:43.369-05:002010-08-20T09:01:43.369-05:00Gotta love having a bathroom with you at all times...Gotta love having a bathroom with you at all times! ;>) Sounds like you're still having adventures!Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14944668643752070291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668309074831860072.post-19828108281866462242010-08-20T08:37:15.209-05:002010-08-20T08:37:15.209-05:00Peggy .... basket of rose.
