Attention: Target has a deal for 20% off both an XBox Series X *and* the football game. ALSO: there’s a 20% off one purchase if you’re a teacher (my wife is), and the Xbox wasn’t excluded

Nashville friends, if you want excellent wings, please try WingBasket, which is so good every every time we have it (my wife's best friend who lives in Sumner County, her parents brought them to the Nashville metro.)

At "Hell's Half Acre" at Stones River is a monument to the Hazen Brigade, seen here. It is the oldest surviving Civil War Monument in the nation.

Some spectacular views from the top of Lookout Mountain at Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park. Not pictured, the War Dad absolutely nailing the narration to his tour group (no, not me.)
