Middle Tennessee, otherwise known as the city of Nashville, is full of places to adventure and explore. Though I have not lived here long, I have caught a slight glimpse of all the area has to offer and will only discover more as the years go on.

We were there to see Of Monsters and Men, an indie band from Iceland, and I was as excited as could be. Neither of us had ever been before so we arrived to the show around an hour early to walk around and see the beautiful and prestigious, Ryman Auditorium. I arrive to the Ryman in my Uber out front and am in awe of the newly redone front entrance.

As I head to my seat, I see the pews I have heard so much about for their uniqueness and uncomfortableness. I look around constantly and admire the ceilings, windows, and stage of a venue that has so much life pulsing out of every corner. When the band took the stage and began performing, they could not stop talking about how honored they were to be playing at such a location and how happy they were to be in Nashville. The light and sound was incredible which made the whole experience much more

    1838 Words  | 8 Pages

    If it weren’t for the “New Deal” programs in the 1930s, Tennessee’s State Park system would be unrecognizable and not one of the best in the United States (US).

    As I stepped out of my car, I acknowledge that the church was surrounded by trees, which gave it a calming and peaceful sensation, the building was long with a triangular shaped form, with burgundy bricks surroundings and a bit of white in the front entrance and some at the very top and sides with a dark beige roofing to give the church some color, the windows seemed to be a tinted crystal glass that was designed with blues and a beige color. As I made my way into the church their was an entry room where a man and a women and what seemed to be their two children greeted me and handed me a pamphlet that described what was going to take place in that days Sunday school and mass, then I made my way to another pair of doors where I could hear the choir singing, as I opened the doors the inside of the church was a tan wood looking color all around and had matching tan benches with burgundy red bedding to match the carpet, the thing that stood out most to me when I walked in was the large cross that was in the very front that shined very bright as if the sun was hitting it to give the whole church light, when I looked below the cross, the choir was singing and beside it was a women playing a piano with so much passion and in front of them was a the pastors book stand also a matching tan color with his bible.
