Last weekend, our family made the five-hour road trip down I-40 from the mountains of eastern Tennessee to Nashville to watch country music legend Alan Jackson’s last live concert. We stayed at a fairly nice hotel within easy walking distance of both the city’s bustling downtown and Nissan Stadium, where the concert was held. The night before the event, we decided to walk from the hotel to the downtown district for dinner and some live music. We went down a side road, under an underpass, across a bridge spanning the Cumberland River, and through a small park-like area that seemed to have been recently constructed before we reached the long line of glittering, music-filled restaurants and bars for which the city is famous.
