Have you Seen These Tourists?

Josh and I were Nashville tourists today with Sharonda and her family. What started as an innocent Discover Nashville tour resulted in us becoming Grey Line’s Most Wanted….we ditched the regular tour and went for the back-stage tour of the Ryman Auditorium. Apparently the bus driver didn’t like the fact that we ditched them so he started to look for us. He even asked Sharonda and her family if they could identify us (they pretended like they didn’t know us)! But we were no where to be found — we were probably back-stage at the time. Ooops! Oh well. It makes for a good story and we got a good laugh out of it! ;-) Afterwards we went to the Tin Roof for lunch where I proceeded to throw all diet cautions to the wind and *stuffed* myself with a shrimp po’ boy sandwich and a cold libation. I felt a little guilty…but gosh it was good!!

Afterwards I came home and watched Marie Antoinette. That is such *beautiful* movie! If you haven’t seen it yet I highly recommend it. Sofia Coppola did such a wonderful job making history fun and funky with all the music and a well-written script. And the scenery of Versailles and costume designs are just amazing! Although I don’t envy Marie’s ultimate demise I found myself being very envious of her lifestyle…she was a TRUE DIVA! I would have loved to be a member of her entourage when picking out fabric for my next gown and matching shoes!!!!

The evening ended with me taking a good, brisk walk in my neighborhood and then I cleaned up my long list of blog subscriptions and now I’m writing this little update. After all, I had to do something productive for the business today! Otherwise the boss lady would reprimand me! ;-)

Day #4 of freedom = Good Times!!!
Tomorrow we are off to Paducah, KY to be tourists again so I probably won’t have any journal entries. I wonder what Most Wanted List we will make tomorrow…??? ;-)
