We rode to Columbia, Tennessee to tour James K. Polk's Home & Museum. As many times as we had visited Columbia, we had never stopped to go inside the home so we made a special trip just to tour the home.

James Knox Polk our 11th president |
It was a small group, a couple from up north with two children, a couple headed to Atlanta for a wedding, and us.
Our guide was very well-informed about the Polk family as he guided us through the home including the stair climb to the three bedrooms.
The kitchen was outside in another building and the gardens were self-guided.
We walked back inside the museum and gift shop before they left.
We continued talking to the couple that was headed to Atlanta.
It was getting close to lunchtime so we stopped at Long John Silver (hubby's favorite) I love their cod.
We stopped at Tractor Supply in Lawrenceburg then headed for home.
