I love Tennesseans!

Today I was reminded why Tennessee is so great and why I live in such a wonderful state.

On the way home today, there was a funeral procession coming along the highway. As is custom, all drivers pulled over to the shoulder of the road and waited to the line passed. We do this as a sign of respect to the deceased and his or her family. Men take their hats off. It is such a wonderful show of respect. It's such a sentimental act of kindness in a world of chips on everyone's shoulders and "what do I get out of it" society.

I wonder if this is a tradition in our area or do other states do this as well?
