Bonnie’s Buzzing About Nashville, Tennessee

Music, dancing, and that good ol’ Southern style – this week, it’s all about Nashville, Tennessee!

No trip to Nashville is complete without a visit to the Grand Ole Opry! See bands perform live, learn about famous musicians who got their start, and enjoy photo opportunities on the way in. It’s a must see! For more country music history, visit the Country Music Hall of Fame. See gorgeous performance costumes, records, guitars and more! Nashville has so much music history to enjoy.

For you outdoor lovers, I recommend taking a hike around Radnor Lake. The State Park area boasts plenty of outdoor trails and paths to explore the rolling Tennessee hills and forests. When you’ve had your exercise, head to Germantown for a delicious sausage link at Von Elrod’s Beer Garden & Sausage House or Butchertown Hall. Delicious!

The Pinewood Social is another really cute spot to hang out! It’s a cafe, bowling alley, co-working space, and more. Remember, having an itinerary is nice, but sometimes travel can be the most fun when we explore! Just wandering around Nashville is a fun experience. Enjoy the street musicians, art galleries and shops as you wander through this Southern city, and eat all the cuisine you can!

So whether you’re going to a show at the Grand Ol’ Opry, or hiking around Radnor Lake, remember, it’s all about style!

What better way to enjoy the summer than to visit this gorgeous city on the water. Here is everything you need to know about exploring Annapolis, Maryland!

One of the most loved green spaces in Annapolis is the Quiet Rivers Park. Enjoy scenic routes for biking, hiking trails, and bird watching. If a vino tour is more your style, consider booking the Chesapeake Wine Tour, featuring delectable drinks from the region.

Strolling down Main Street will offer you plenty of places to explore, but if you really want to see the city, the Trolley Tour is the way to go. You’ll learn and see 350 years of history in just one hour. The William Paca House is another fabulous tour opportunity! Built in the late 1700s, explore the garden and grounds to learn how the Colonial Elite of the East Coast used to live.

Annapolis, Maryland, USA downtown view over Main Street with the State House.

Bonnie’s Buzzing About Portland, Maine

I love this gorgeous East Coast city on the water, and I’m here to tell you why Portland, Maine is the main event!

The first thing you’ll want to do is explore Portland’s Historic District. Nicknamed “Old Port,” you’ll witness historic building facades, fishermen displaying their daily catches, and an abundance of shops and restaurants. There will be many opportunities for cruises and boat rides, too. If you’re feeling adventurous, visit the Casco Bay Islands off the coast, which are accessible by ferry year round, offering visitors beaches and island activities.

If you really want to treat yourself, you can book a Private Lighthouse Sightseeing Charter on a Vintage Lobster Boat. Pass by four different lighthouses while your Captain tells you all about Maine’s history. After your day in the sun, catch an orchestral show at the Merrill Auditorium. There’s so many fabulous cultural activities to do in Portland.

If you love theater like I do, check out who’s on the Portland Stage. There’s always a fabulous show to see! Also, you don’t want to miss the Portland Museum of Art, where you’re bound to see up and coming artists, as well as events and lectures.

So remember, whether you’re on a boat off the coast of the Casco Bay Islands, or attending an orchestra show for the evening, it’s all about style!

Bonnie’s Buzzing About Asheville, North Carolina

Asheville, North Carolina! One of the sweetest Southern cities I’ve had the pleasure of visiting. Here’s everything you need to know for your next visit.

One of your first stops in Asheville should be the Biltmore. This beautiful and historic Vanderbilt estate boasts its own winery, gardens and a 4 star inn. Tour the grounds and get a bite to eat while you’re there. If you’re still hungry, take a bite out of Southern Cuisine with the Eating Asheville food tour! Learn more about the history of the area, learn about up and coming restaurants and food trends, and more.

Asheville has a bustling art scene, so be sure to explore the River Arts District. Every second Saturday, there are open sessions, classes, and art activities. It certainly won’t be hard to find musical entertainment in Asheville! You can check their music calendar for weekly events, and there’s even a guide on where to go dancing.

The second most popular destination after the Biltmore is the famous Appalachian Trail. Stretching from Georgia to Maine, many of the trail’s miles are right in North Carolina. If you’re not much for wooded trails, explore Asheville’s Urban Trail! This self-guided trail is not even two miles, and weaves you through the cultural and architectural history of the city.
