Today the weather was hot! In the 90's and humid, thank goodness we had a light breeze.
We left the RV park around 8:30 AM and headed to the Sommet Center in downtown Nashville to pick up our registration packet and tickets. Went smoother than I expected. Afterwards we went back to the CM Hall of Fame. We had toured this on our Gray Lines tour but they only gave us an hour. You could spend a day in there easily. We spent most of the day here and enjoyed a wonderful lunch in their very nice restaurant. Tomorrow Trace Adkins and Trisha Yearwood will be here signing autographs if you buy their book and/or a CD in the Hall of Fame gift shop. I don't think we'll be there for all that craziness.
After we left the Hall of Fame we went a party at the Sommet Plaza, hosted by Chevrolet. Listened to some good country music for a while then we headed back to the RV. We were all pretty tired, the heat really takes it out of you.
Tomorrow will be a long and busy day, I doubt I'll get a post in the blog. Concerts start at 10:00 AM at the riverfront stage then tomorrow night we have the first concert at LP field and at 11:00 PM we have great tickets for another Opry show at the Ryman Auditorium. Carol won these tickets, they gave away 4 tickets at last nights Opry performance, Carol won 2 of them. I think we'll be sleeping in on Friday.

The Detroit Red Wings won the Stanley Cup last night! Just imagine, a few weeks ago, we were posing for our pictures in front of that very same Stanley Cup in Toronto, Ontario, Canada!
Yep, the past few weeks have went by way too fast. We watched the game.
