Songs can be inspirational for a number of reasons.  Don't remember when or how I first found this song but it made we want to ride my bike there.  So, I tired.  Never really did find the "road".  Later heard that the roads name had been changed since the song was so popular and people were taking down the road signs.  May or may not be true. 

Also, somewhat of a true story..... of the "time".......... and it made we ride there and see Mountain City, Tennessee.

I had heard about it, read about it but really wanted to experience it.  First time was great, second time was great.  Third time, not so great.  Don't plan on going back in the near future.  However, I am glad I can say I was there and had a very good dinner at Rendezvous Restaurant (see link below)

Take It Easy
Song by Eagles
OverviewLyricsListenOther recordings
Main Results
Well, I'm running down the road
Tryin' to loosen my load
I've got seven women on my mind.
Four that wanna own me
Two that wanna stone me
One says she's a friend of mine.
Take It easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels
Drive you crazy
Lighten up while you still can
Don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand
And take it easy
Well, I'm a standing on a corner
In Winslow, Arizona
And such a fine sight to see
It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford
Slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love
Is gonna save me
We may lose and we may win
Though we will never be here again
So open up, I'm climbin' in
So take it easy
Well I'm running down the road
Trying to loosen my load
Got a world of trouble on my mind
Lookin' for a lover
Who won't blow my cover
She's so hard to find
Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels
Make you crazy
Come on baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love
Is gonna save me, oh oh oh
Oh we got it easy
We oughta take it easy

There were several Elvis's there that day.   

Another "encounter" I caught on camera.

The Eagles, Take It Easy....

When I planned our first trip out west, we headed to the Grand Canyon first and that took us through Winslow, AZ.  Just had to stop there.  And when we went downtown, we got a great surprise.

Had to take a screen shot of the video (drop box link below image) I made of our trip to get the image of me standing on the corner.
