The Grand Ole Opry was awesome. Spending the beautiful sunny day in Nashville visiting the sites was great.
Being at the Kentucky Derby was something best left to the imagination. The record setting levels of rain for the area left the infield so muddy that the boozed soaked youth held mud wrestling contests. Tarps were used for slip 'n slide rides. The races could not be seen nor heard.
If you ever decide to go, spend the hundreds of dollars to get a seat. The hats were still fun to see, I got souvenir mint julep glasses, and I can say that I was there to lose my money in person!!
Now it's on to a week of volunteering at a church camp in Ravenna, KY...that's if I make it through the flooded areas and streets.
I think this year should be called "Extreme Volunteering." I've pretty much was a part of all the extreme weather this country has had in the past 10 months.
