The Tea Room

Today I made my way to the last of my Route 66/I-40 shelters in a storm (literally).  The last time I was in Knoxville, Tennessee, a rain and wind storm parked itself over the city for days.  What started out as a tantrum became an opportunity.  I had the chance to meet several people within the vintage motorcycle community who introduced me to the Time Warp Tea Room.

To say this place is cool is an understatement.  It is clearly a labor of love and one that provides great food and yes, homemade tea cakes.

This year it gave me the chance to interview Kelly.  A young woman whose kind nature and positive spirit could not have come at a better time.  My history with the Tea Room is one of renewal.  It did not disappoint,

  1. I sense Kelly is trying to carefully craft her words to be minimally offensive. Maybe that’s a cultural thing with Southerners? It’s the exact opposite of what I’m seeing in recent news videos.

    At this rate, you’ll hit D.C. in days. Are you planning on driving a loop back?

  2. Again, I liked Dettick’s comments. Yes. Kelly is refreshing after all the nasty rhetoric we have been bombarded with in this past week.

  3. Go forward don’t go back. Thank you Kelly with Hillary in the White House we will be going forward.
