On our way east this spring we stopped in Nashville and spent a couple of days sightseeing. A guided tour of Nashville and a visit to The Country Music Hall of Fame was most memorable. We both love country music and thoroughly enjoyed visiting all the historic places where famous country artists and some rock 'n roll artists got their start. Yes, even Elvis was there.
We went to the Grand Ol' Opry Saturday night. It was a dream come true for Karen. She has dreamed of going since she was a little girl. It was a great show with lots of well known country artists performing with Carrie Underwood being the featured star of the evening. It was just a week later that she was honored as the female vocalist of the year at the Annual Country Music Awards for the very songs we watched her perform on stage in Nashville. It was an experience of a lifetime.
Unfortunately, our visit to North Carolina is coming to a close. We hope to be back in the Fall. We have obligations in Georgia once again this month for a couple of weeks and then in Rockport, Texas before returning to Lubbock.
