Tennessee Trip Advice: Memphis and Nashville
21Some other Nashville stuff:1. Lane Motor Museum. You wouldn't label me a car person and walk away with your face intact but there's a European motor museum here that I found to be really engaging. They have a extensive collection of unusual or rare vehicles in pristine condition, including old German BMW's, Monowheels, and Hungarian sedans from the 50's. They even have a prototype steam car. Worth a visit.http://www.lanemotormuseum.org/2. The Bell Witch Cave. Just north of Nashville in Adams. Re: Tennessee's most well known haunt legend. Apocalyptic Christians give the tour. There's a beautiful little Indian grave from centuries ago in the first of two chambers. The family that runs the attraction seems to have avoided any kind of state safety oversight. The main tunnel floods when it rains a lot. To be more specific, it's usually slightly dangerous to walk 100 yards or more on sharp slippery rocks, surrounded by lurking spiders the size of wine bottles. The experience is worth it though and the tour is pretty cheap. 3. Rhino Books and Elder's Bookstore Elder's is an antiquarian bookshop with some stuff i haven't seen anywhere else. The owner has a perma-scowl but it's a good place to find shit that you want but didn't know you wanted and maybe can't afford. Rhino is just a good bookstore to hang out in. Lots of cheap paperbacks. There's never anyone there when i go and I always love the music that the old hippie clerks are playing when I'm there. The coffee at the new coffee place next door is really good.
