Back from Nashville


I made it back. Nashville was a-MAZING! Blazing +90 degree temperature all week. Not to mention sunburn but I'd do it all again in an instant. Not to mention I want Martina McBride's entire wardrobe.






Highlights:
  • driving through the "mountains" that my Dad was worried about
  • Holly's mix cd's
  • the Fiddler's Inn motel was so much better than I could have expected. The location was perfect and the rooms were nice (even though they were old). I would love to go back there again for the next Fan Club Party.
  • meeting Carrie Underwood!!!!!!
  • going to 2 shows at the Grand Ole Opry
  • while I wouldn't go back to the CMT Music Awards it was definitely a good experience
  • LP Field nightly concerts (Thur, Fri, Sat, and Sun)
    • Sugarland, Martina McBride, and Keith Urban were my favs
    • The crowd gave her another tear provoking standing ovation this year.
  • meeting Kristen Chenoweth, and talking with her about fried pickles and Monte Christo sandwiches.
  • red velvet ice cream from Mike's Ice Cream on Broadway
  • my custom inscribed new belt and buckle
  • Martina McBride YWCA Celebrity Auction
    • top selling item was the dress she wore when the Opry re-opened. It went for $27,000!


 


I did everything I set out to do and I'm so glad I made it a week long trip. It's taken me about four days to re-coup from it all :P  There have been some things going on at the house so I'm glad that I could at least have this vacation to really enjoy in the midst of all that's occurring.







The best is yet to come,
