Who Knew?

Nashville is a great city. Having lived here most of my life except for college and early married years, I know the city fairly well and love it like a well-worn shoe. One of its quirky characteristics is its unique way of naming streets... particularly, renaming the same streets. Briley Parkway is White Bridge Road is Woodmont Boulevard is Thompson Lane. Hillsboro Road is 21st Avenue is Broadway. Harding Place is Battery Lane is Harding Place. Today I have learned that Knob Road is Russleo Drive. This may seem insignificant to you unless you frequent the shoppes at Nashville West (Costco, Target, Dick's, Old Navy, Red Robin, Best Buy) and the White Bridge Road/Belle Meade area. If you find yourself in those areas, try this newest route in my brain and clearly on your GPS... Russleo dies into the old K-Mart on Charlotte Pike and will take you right to White Bridge Road under a different name, Knob Road. A traffic light will be there to greet you... who knew I could learn something else new about this wonderful city?
