Nashville Fun

Hey Everybody!! Hope everyone has had a fun week. How about the snow?? Crazy huh? The kids really enjoyed it! I've been in Nashville since Tuesday this week. It's Friday and I'll be flying home tomorrow. I am more than ready to be home. But it has been an incredible week. I thought that I had seen lots of country stars throughout my radio career but this week really did me in. Normally when you go to a concert it's one or two singing stars and thousands of fans. Here, this week...it seemed to be the opposite. Everywhere I turned there was a country singer or someone who played in their band or someone who wrote the song. It was really amazing for me. Just today..I saw George Jones, The Oak Ridge Boys, Keith Urban, Jewel, Trent Tomlinson, John Rich of Big and Rich, and Taylor Swift and then tons of newcomers that you probably would not recognize. Just very very cool for me.
I would be up all night if I tried to tell you all the exciting events of this week. I met so many great people in the business and I am so thankful that I was able to experience this event for the first time.
I think Richard survived a week on his own with the kids and I am so proud of him. Most of all I'm so glad that he took over both of our roles for the week so that I could have this experience. He is my greatest gift in life and my best friend.
Can't wait to get home and get back in the groove!! It's always fun to get away for a bit but there's no place like home!!
