Nashville, Tennessee
Home of the Grand Ole Opry

The weekend after my daughter's wedding (Heather & Kevin), Jeroen and I went to Nashville to explore.  We attended the Saturday night performance of the Grand Ole Opry and actually had front row seats.  Bill Anderson came over and talked to me at one point.  Lots of great performers including Jim Nabors, Porter Waggoner, Bill Anderson, Little Jimmy Dickens, Ricky Skaggs and Pam Tillis.  We also spent lots of time in the outlet mall called Opry Mills.  It is located on the land which originally housed "Opryland".  I know you'll enjoy the pictures from the Opryland Hotel.  The place is FABULOUS!  Downtown is great also with the Bat Building, the bubble-blowing buildings and the Hard Rock Cafe and Planet Hollywood.  Loads of bars with people trying to make it famous.  Come and visit with me!  My daughter, Heather, and I came back on July 12 to see Ricky Martin at the Gaylord Entertainment Center which you will also see in the pictures.  This town is a wonderful place to visit!
