CHECK OFF BUCKET LIST

we have wanted to for several yrs wanted to go to the grand ole opry and last night we finally did..when we have been here before there wasn't a show going on or we were here when Mitchell was just 8 weeks old and didn't want to leave him for several hrs alone...we checked into the campground around 3 and talked to the girls behind the counter abut getting tickets and she told us nothing for tomorrow night but I can check on tonight (fri) so we looked at each other and said if we are going to do it then I guess we have to go tonight...yep she could get us tickets for tonight...also included was transportation to and from ...of course for a wee bit more...we had just gotten off I-65 which was a mess bumper to bumper for lots and lots of miles and there was NO way we wanted to fight the traffic besides we didn't even know where the theatre was....we drove in some very heavy rain which didn't help the trip here....we had to be ready to go at 5:15 so we had to hurry set up and grab a bite to eat...we did it not a problem.. I-65 was still a mess when the driver came for several of us to take to the show but luck was with us he knew his way around and said he was taking some short cuts ahhahahaha...he also had to pick up several others at hotels around town but we made it on time... now getting out of the parking lot was a different story...again bumper to bumper slow not even a quick quick once in awhile...got back home (rig) around 11:30 exhausted but we had a good time and enjoyed the show once we got to our seats and it started....would we do it again..right now the answer would be no cause of all the horrible traffic going and coming from the theatre but who knows in a couple of yrs we might have forgotten about that... the names of some you might know who were entertaining last night were RICKY SKAGGS-LARRY GATLIN those were a couple of names that rang w bell with me.... tomorrow is easter and we will probally be traveling but will take a minute or two to remember what it is all about.. god bless
