Southport Light Station in Kenosha, Wisconsin

The Old Kenosha Lighthouse (also known as the Southport Light Station) in Kenosha, Wisconsin is a historic Lake Michigan lighthouse that was built in 1866. While it's a beautifully restored structure, I was admittedly just as impressed by a vintage Porsche parked out front.

RCA Studio B in Nashville, Tennessee

RCA Studio B Nashville TennesseeRCA Studio B is one of those humble spaces where incredible things happened. It wasn't just Elvis either - Dolly Parton, Roy Orbison, Willie Nelson, Charley Pride, Hank Snow, the Everly Brothers, and numerous other big names recorded music here since Studio B opened in the late 1950s.

Today you can visit RCA Studio B in Nashville by booking a tour through the Country Music Hall of Fame. One of the absolute highlights, time permitting, is sitting in the studio as the lights are dimmed and listening as a raw recording of Elvis singing Are You Lonesome Tonight echos through the space. The experience will transport you back in time.
