The last of our trips for awhile. We met Barb and JP and Lil and Rene in Nashville. We spent most of our time at the Nashville Palace drinking beer, eating fried bologna sandwiches and succotash and listening to great country music. We wen to the Grand Ole Opry twice. We saw: Jeannie Sealy, Ryan Kinder, Mike Snider, The Whites, Holly Williams, T Graham Brown, Connie Smith, Jesse McReynolds, Wade Hayes, Riders in the Sky, Natalie Hemby (she has written some great songs for others), the O'Connor Band, Luke Combs, Kristian Bush (From Sugarland), Smithfield, Chris Janson (amazing) Ricky Skaggs and Trace Adkins. Front row for both shows. Trace sang a song about getting old and at the end he pointed to me and said "You know what I mean". We also went to Memphis (about 4 hours) to visit Graceland. It was great to see, but the house is actually quite small (smaller than our house). The memorabilia is now housed in a brand new plaza across the street. Great trip. One of my favourites.
