Music City

We just spent five days in Nashville and had a fabulous time. If you like country music like we do, this city is a must.

Went to the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. It was fabulous:

Went “honky-Tonkin” as John says. So many great musicians playing for tips only while hoping to make it big. Don’t come to Nashville to be discovered unless you have an amazing voice and/or mad guitar/fiddle/steel guitar skills:

Went to Franklin Graham’s prayer rally at the State capital. It was a fabulous time of worship by Charlie Danieks, Dennis Agaganian, and Michael W Smith and message from Franklin Graham about the importance of being informed voters and challenging Christians to get involved in local politics.

For our 41st anniversary, saw Bonnie Raitt at the historic Ryman Auditorium:

Visited the Grand Ole Opry and the Opry Hotel. The hotel is gorgeous:

  1. Looks like if they put dad on the $20 bill all they’d have to do is face swap them since they have the same hair!

  2. Hey Diane, I went to the Hermitage and loved it! the grounds were so amazing. I also went to the Grand Ole opry and liked it. Did you go to the Parthenon? I loved that too. They built it during the Worlds fair of 1897 and then recreated it to become a tourist attraction. Very cool. Sounds like you guys are having a great time. So enjoy reading about your travels!
