Redecorating or Closing Shop at the Mall
On days when it is not possible to walk outdoors, we walk at a local indoor mall. It is noticeable that every other store is either closing for good or redecorating. Two big anchor stores,Lord & Taylor and Sears have closed completely. Macy's and JC Penny's look like they are not doing too well. There are empty shelves and many sales signs.

A piece to remind me of Country Mu sic City, Nashville, TN
Locals have renamed Nashville - Nash Vegas. I am not so sure about this. On our last trip to this place I was struck by the closed in feeling due to the high rise buildings closing in on Broadway. The Ryman Auditorium now looks like a hidden place. What's left of all the bars, museums and historical venues has taken on an almost seedy sheen. Parking prices are horrible,if you can even find a spot. Currently the Grand Ole Opry has taken on classic performances that in the past were held at the Ryman. There was no need to go downtown for us old folks.

Broadway Nashville
It appears to me skyscrapers are closing in on the entertainment district. You can't get a clear picture of the Ryman Auditorium anymore.

Courtyard at the Gaylord Resort and Convention Center Detail
A rather elaborate resort. The whole complex is glassed in, so you don't need an umbrella or winter coat when you stay there.

Interesting walkway - not handicapped accessible
We visited the Great Falls of Paterson. We noticed that since the opening of this national park in 1986 little effort has been made to make this place handicapped accessible. Yes, the parking lot is accessible, but that's where it ends.
