Bob, where I live there's only been one major hurricane in over 40 years. Greed with a capital G and unreasonable to me.

East TN is beautiful in the mountains.

Also Gallatin (north) and Franklin (south) Murfreesboro (east) and Dickson (west) outside of Nashville in middle TN are nice. Actually there's quite a few little cities outside Nashville that are nice. Long drive to the ocean. But great pickin'. grin.
