Please realize, other than the 90 minutes from Neyland/TBA and walking outside to the Smokies, it was all sarcasm.

it does have a lot of history. Would have been the capital of the State of Franklin, first town established by NC after crossing the Appalachians, Andrew Jackson, while from Greene County, had a lot of ties there, David Crockett was born there. Was the supposed leader of the South for those supporting the abolitionist movement. Memphis and Nashville have quite a bit of history, but I don't see the point in debating who is the most historic. I'm a history nerd, but I don't see the point in making one place more historical than the other.

I live 25 minutes from Reelffot lake and an hour from KY Lake/LBL. Very little traffic, low crime, slow pace of life. It's home. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed living in Knoxville, but the traffic and noise got to me. And it just didn't feel like home to me.

60 minutes from down town Nashville
60 minutes to down town Chatt
Hour and a half to Huntsville
7 minutes to my office

But the Wal mart and home depot are the most important according to my wife
