Camden, Tennessee - Patsy Cline Crash Site Memorial

We really wanted to visit this memorial, my Mom really likes Patsy Cline's music. It was REALLY tricky finding this at first, you may think you're on the wrong road but you're not. Here's some landmarks that might help. Turn onto the SMALL side road RIGHT beside the SHELL gas station, you'll pass CAMDEN PARK keep going on Mt. Carmel road and you'll pass a LAND FILL and FIRETOWER road. Keep going and you'll see a GREEN sign on the LEFT side of the road andthe memorial is on the Right side down a little road that leads you to a tiny parking area. It was a surreal place.
