Johnny Cash's Final Resting Place

On my birthday, with my friend Emily in Nashville, and after having consumed a fine cheesesteak or two, we decided to drive in the snow to see where Johnny Cash rests. I had the address and it was Yahoo to the rescue. Johnny is in a public cemetary on Johnny Cash Avenue in Hendersonville TN. It took us about 20 minutes to get there from downtown. As we were crusing through the cemetary, I stopped a young man on a backhoe who was more than thrilled to help us locate it. It seems to be a point of pride for them. As well it should be. June and he are buried on the crest of a knoll just about in the center.

Right next to him is June's


A very tasteful black bench hovers over the headstones.

What a great way to spend a birthday afternoon.
