In evacuating from hurricane Irma, our second stop was the Residence Inn Marriott in Nashville SE in Murfreesboro, Tennessee with the first at Towneplace Suites Marriott in Auburn, Alabama! We were not planning on coming here because we were going to visit my Mom in Mississippi but she got sick right before we arrived and then we wound up with nowhere to stay! We settled on Nashville because this looked like the most fun nearby to Auburn and a good distance from the hurricane!
Would you like to take a tour with me of the hotel because I enjoy seeing posts like this my friends make such as @gmichelbkk frequently makes and @sweetsssj is best known for? This is also the hotel where I hosted my second Steem meetup after hosting the first Steem meetup in Florida a month earlier. No one showed up for the second meetup which is okay because I just worked on my Macbook Pro and waited along with moving my bags between rooms!
We booked a two room suite! Here is the entrance to the room!
Here is the first bedroom on the left where my daughter slept!
View from the window.
The awesome part about this two bedroom suite was having a bathtub for our daughter!
Here is the second room where my wife @laurabanfield and I slept!
Nice 3 USB travel charger by the bed!
Here is the second or master bathroom!
What I like most and least about this bathroom is the shower. The design lets all the air just flow out. While this seems like a cute idea to eliminate curtains or doors, it also ruins the best part about the shower with enjoying it being warm and taking a relaxing shower in the hot water. With the open door, all the hot air flows out.
Meanwhile, the drain is awesome making the shower about average!
The reading lights beside the bed rock!
Beautiful lobby for the Steem meetup with just me!
Semi-private booths to hang out in!
The market has snacks and necessities.
Lovely tables and TVs!
The business center is in the lobby!
Flavored water and coffee bar!
The fitness center smelled so fresh and new! Too bad I did not not use it!
Awesome water fountain and pool outside the lobby!
Grilling time apparently is every Tuesday!
Pool and kid's area!
Fireplace outside!
The fountain and pool are beautiful at night!
Thank you for joining me on another adventure!
Love,
Jerry Banfield with photos by @laurabanfield

Wish I could have left town from Irma, thank GOD we were spared, but we were here in Tampa ready to do what we could to keep people safe.
Its great to get away, hotel room looks really comfortable.
Have a great journey and a safe trip.

The fountain and pool are gorgeous, as is the lobby - it is quite spacious, isn't it, with all the seating! The high ceilings are a nice touch, as is the light coloring in the lobby area.
As to the suite, it's wonderful; I've stayed at a Residence Inn for a special vacation at DISNEY .. and yours is even nicer. Its kitchen is decent enough, with a range & a place to sit for breakfast.
Sweet that your suite included a shower for yr Daughter! (I bet she had a good time, didn't she? )
*NOTE: The way you included minute details - like when u said "reading lights beside the bed"... was similar to how I write about my travels/lodging
So I appreciated your #writing ..is what I am hinting at.
Do they offer a free Breakfast in the Lobby?
Liked the various coffee urns I saw - means the brew is on, in many #flavors!
P.S. The outdoor grounds are as beautiful as the inside

Jerry, I joined Steemit after watching a couple of your paid lectures about cryptocurrency and mining on stackskills. They were fascinating, well structured and allowed me to gain some better insight into how this currency works. I highly recommend them. I love the concept and look forward to following your adventures and help contribute as much as possible. I fired up my first witness server today and am pursuing all avenues to help make this place a great success. Thanks and good luck with your future endeavours!

I am very grateful to the pope like you

Tootsie's Orchid Lounge, Nashville
Nashville is a very neat place. While still in the Marine Corps and returning from duty in Panama during Operation Just Cause, my Marine buddy and I visited there while on leave. As we were both single at the time and young Marines, we did not visit many family-oriented tourist spots.
I also lived in Tennessee for sometime after leaving the service, both in Gainesboro (North-Central Tennessee) and Bristol (Eastern Tennessee). I worked in the tobacco fields for a season in Gainesboro; the hardest work I ever did in my life!
So glad that you and your family are safe. As always, blessings to you and yours!

Jerry what are your plans for after TN? It's insane nobody showed up to the 2nd meetup! You should maybe come a couple states west, to Colorado or Oklahoma perhaps and we'll throw a really big Steemit meetup 😄 I am also a refugee from the Irma hurricane and I went NW and there's a solid amount of people interested in Steemit around here! Lemme know what you think @jerrybanfield 😄
