Day 4
Rain & Compote

November 30, 2008 (day 4)
Today had a lot of repeats. My intended breakfast spot was closed so I revisited a place from last year. I then stopped at other familiar spots, such as Wigwam Village and the Corvette Museum, on the way home. A little rain and, near Cincinnati, a lot of traffic.

November 29, 2008 (day 3)
Some rain kept me on the expressway but I did see a little Biltmore by daylight and the "Rock of Dolly". In Nashville, I saw tons of talent on Broadway and an excellent show at the Bluebird Cafe.

November 28, 2008 (day 2)
I had breakfast in a drug store, met up with a friend at the Sunsphere, and toured the Biltmore House by candlelight. Except for those Knoxville city streets, it was Dixie all the way.

November 27, 2008 (day 1)
I'm following the Dixie Highway to Asheville, North Carolina, to see the Biltmore mansion and have made it to the north edge of Knoxville, Tennessee. I visited a real Dixie Highway marker and discovered a memorial to New York's towers -- and a local Medal of Honor winner -- in Kentucky.
