Let me show you around Bristol, Tennessee! Bristol is a small town on the border of Tennessee and Virginia with a lot more to offer than racing. After you read this I hope you start planning a trip to the city in two states.
Claire’s First Hike
Wow. It has been a minute since I’ve written a blog post but today feels like the perfect opportunity. I feel as though I may be stepping out of the new mom fog… just in time for the 4 month sleep regression. Ha! Jokes aside I haven’t felt particularly inspired since the pandemic started. Compound […]
Delta Blues BBQ
The newest restaurant in Bristol caught my eye while walking down State Street during Rhythm and Roots last weekend. Delta Blues is a BBQ restaurant that feels a little like Memphis and Nashville right here in Bristol. My husband is known as the brisket king in our family so I knew it wouldn’t be long […]
Rhythm & Roots 2019
Bristol’s Rhythm & Roots Reunion is a music and art festival held every 3rd weekend in September on the state line between Tennessee and Virginia.

Bloom Café and Coffee Shop
Bloom is a new coffee shop and cafe in downtown Bristol that has been on my radar since Rhythm and Roots back in September. I popped in to this State Street newbie for a coffee a few weeks back but last night I was able to stay for trivia. The theme was “Stranger Things” and it was a […]
Bristol Caverns
If you’re looking for more cold-weather activities to enjoy in Tennessee I’ve got you covered. The temperature inside Bristol Caverns is in the 60’s year-round making it the perfect place to explore even in the winter.
Birthplace of Country Music Museum
Happy Monday everyone! I’m enjoying my day at home since the clinic is closed in observance of MLK Day. I hope you’re all staying warm and getting your Vitamin C. Our area of Tennessee has been frigidly cold this month but that doesn’t mean your only choice is to stay inside. Not that I have […]
