CONGRATULATIONS TO TRACKERGIRL65 FOR FIRST TO FIND (NEW HIDE!) Original description: This is our 3 cache in the states series we are doing. Tennessee was the 3rd state we found a cache in. Glad this got found so quick and there was a cache party. 11/8/2014: Worsty5 and Lilcritter have graciously allowed me to adopt this cache! I'm excited about it as it is my first "adoption" and first cache hide. Since I'm a native of the Great State of Tennessee, I thought this one appropriate to "adopt". Enjoy this quick and easy park & grab. Please use stealth!! A few fun facts about the Great State of Tennessee: State Capitol: Nashville, is known as "Music City" – the country music capital of the world. The Grand Ole Opry in Nashville is the longest continuously running live radio program in the world. It has broadcast every weekend since 1925. Nashville is also home to the Country Music Hall of Fame and Music Row. Bluegrass music originated in Bristol, in northeastern Tennessee. Elvis Presley's Tennessee home, Graceland is located in Memphis, Tennessee. Memphis is also home to "the blues" and famous Beale Street. Graceland is currently the 2nd most visited home in the United States. The largest earthquake in American history, the New Madrid Earthquake, occurred in the winter of 1811-12 in Tennessee. Reelfoot Lake was formed during this earthquake. Reelfoot Lake is also is touted the "Turtle Capital of the World" There are more horses per capita in Shelby County than any other county in the United States.
