KnoxVILLE to NashVILLE

On the drive from Knoxville to Nashville I can’t help but notice an obscene amount of “villes.” And if you’re from the South, you know it isn’t pronounced “ville” but instead more like “vulle.”

So on the drive we passed exits for and/or drove through:

• Pikeville
• Lawnville Road
• Cookeville
• Smithville
• McMinnville (Oregon has one too!)
• Hartsville
• Gordonville
• Leeville
• Clarksville
• Nolensville

And it’s only a three hour drive! Some other noteworthy villes: Huntsville, Alabama where the Stephanie the widow from the Bachelor is from. And Hendersonville where Taylor Swift lives.
