First time visiting Downtown Nashville

 

I went Downtown Nashville for the very first time. I went to Nissan Stadium 🏟️ to check out where the Tennessee Titans play and took pics. Then I walked across the bridge 🌉 near the Stadium until I got to the heart ❤️ of Downtown Broadway and got me some good grub at a restaurant called Sun Diner. The food was delicious! 😋 I had chopped up ribs, hash browns, scrambled eggs with cheese and cooked onions, fresh fruit, and three servings of sweet tea.

 Downtown Nashville in Broadway sidewalks are narrow and it's a very busy street. The sweet woman waitress who waited on me name 📛 was Mariana at the restaurant that I ate at. In Downtown Nashville, people are walking, jogging, riding their bikes 🚲, and riding the green scooters. 🛴 Downtown Nashville is nice during the day to come to. I heard country hits from Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, and Patsy Cline. Johnny Cash Bar & BBQ were near a lot of restaurants in Broadway. I will have to plan another day to come back the next time I'm in town to come to Downtown Nashville.

I enjoyed The Waffle 🧇 House yesterday. I met a woman waitress who calls me friend back in March when I went there a couple of times when I first flew to Nashville, her name 📛 is Marie. Marie reminds me a little of Tiffany back home. Marie likes waiting on me at The Waffle House like Tiffany did at Hall of Fame Lanes. Marie's job doesn't consume her. Marie was training a young man who just got hired at The Waffle House who looked to be no older than twenty. I had a chance to tell Marie about me trying to transfer to the Nashville Post Office on Royal Parkway. Marie likes the way I tip. It's not hard to get a big tip from me. If the service is good 👍😊 and the waiter or waitress is friendly I'm going to leave a big tip like I did at the restaurant in Broadway.

Lastly, I'm going to try to go to the 🎢 amusement park, bowling 🎳, the mall, The Cheesecake factory 🏭 etc, the rest of my 4-day stay here in Nashville. I will keep y'all updated if I hear anything from the Nashville post office. God Bless You!

Back in Nashville

 

I decided to take a vacation and come back to Nashville, TN. This time this is for relaxation and vacation. I have a little over 4 weeks of Annual Leave (AL) and normally carry over 30-40 hours of AL a year till I get issued another AL batch after building up AL every pay period. I needed a break from my job at the Post Office plant in Hartford that I work at and took some time off and even including my Non-Schedule days as well as my Scheduled days for this vacation.

I reapplied for a transfer at the Nashville post office after the 8 months process and being denied to transfer in a letter ✉️ May 10, 2024 that I put in for September 3, 2023. I was home with my mom at the time taking care of her while she was still living up till she passed. I learned how the transfer process works when you are trying to transfer. That's why June 1, 2024 I put in another transfer at the Nashville Post Office. 

I flew into Nashville today and it was about 9:30 AM Central Standard Time. I plan to get out during my 5 day stay here and perhaps go Downtown and even check out Nissan Stadium 🏟️ in Downtown Nashville. The locals here have been really helpful and made this like a second home to me. I'm a Tennessee Titans fan as well as a Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan.

I'm here at La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham and thought 🤔 that I would take some pics. There are more pics and blogs to come. I just want to relax and get a bite to eat which will likely be at the Waffle 🧇 House. Feel free to comment and suggest maybe other things to me to do here in Nashville and I will take your suggestions and opinions in consideration. Thank you and God Bless You!
