Nashville area fun date ideas

So we've been married now for 6 1/2 months, and I feel we have no fun dates anymore and want to do something new and fun, besides the usual bowling, movies, etc.

Any ideas?

Sounds game, Zanies, concert, or Bluebird Cafe for live music. Play tourist for a night downtown and go on a haunted pub tour or just walk around downtown. Walk on the pedestrian bridge and look at the city at night. Go to Bobbie's Dairy dip...

Have you gone downtown on Saturday afternoons? ?There is a live band in every bar, no covers, and the bars are never packed. ?

The Hermitage and Cheekwood are cool if you have never been. ?So is Opryland hotel, but I have been there 38247302374 times and I am no longer amused by it. ?Jack Daniels distillery is about an hour out of town and the tour is free. ?The carriage rides downtown are also worth doing.

On weekends pack a light picnic basket and head to Arrington Vineyards for live music and great wine.  If you have a dog, go to the dog park.  I know it doesn't sound like a date type of thing, but I think we have more fun than the dogs when we go!

thanks for the ideas!  We both have lived here most of our lives (+/-25 years) and feel like I'm stumped!

I second Arrington. DH and I have so much fun when we go there. It's a beautiful setting and a great place to relax.

Also, F. Scott's in Green Hills has live jazz and good happy "hour" (until 10 pm!) specials. We went there last weekend and had a wonderful time.

Do you like beer? ?The Yazoo brewery tour is fun, and they have a nice (but small) taproom where you could snack on a cheese plate & try one of their flytes.

What about the new Planetarium at the Science Center?

Often there is stuff going on at Centennial Park, like this weekend there's a arts & crafts fair.?

We go to the drive-in every once in a while and have a great time.  There is one in Watertown (Stardust drive-in) and another in Woodbury (Moonlite drive-in).  You can't beat seeing 2 new movies for 7 bucks.  I know it's still watching a movie, but it's fun watching them outside.
