The City Bus

All summer Hailey was been asking to ride the bus. Today we decided to grant her request. My mom, my brother (uncle clayton), Hailey, and myself got on the bus at Lipscomb University on Granny White. We rode the bus all the way downtown where we got off at 6th and Church St. We walked up a few blocks to the Library where Hailey returned some books and got a few more. After the library we decided to go visit Fort Nashborough on the riverfront. My brother is very interested in family history and John Donelson (one of the founding fathers of Nashville) is one of our great great (alot more greats) Uncles (He is also father to Rachel Donelson Jackson, the wife of Andrew Jackson, the president). Clayton was very excited to see the statue of John Donelson and James Robertson (the other founding father) and to see the replica of the fort. We did the self guided tour of the fort and then headed off to lunch at Sabarros. Then we hopped on the bus and headed home.
