Back to Tumblrland.
I got back yesterday from a whirlwind trip around the South, plus a little of the midwest. I left Knoxville, TN on Wednesday around 10am EST headed toward Nashville, TN.

theachievaweava asked: I'm from Lexington, I hope you consider it in the South. People from Kentucky believe that the northest point of Lexington is the cutoff from south to north.
