alabamabebe: I was thinking that earlier, everybody bring their fave party music!



Hmmm... The last party I went to was a company Christmas party a few years ago, up in Kansas - Somethin' tells me that playin' "Jingle Bell Rock" in the middle of August would attract the guys with the white suits and butterfly nets...

christmas happy

C'mon Don, I know you've got some good Merle Haggard, that's good for partyin'! Rolling Stones, Doobie Brothers, et al. We're not talking headbanging party here, this is a Tennessee picnic for chrissake, we need honkytonk mountain music! I'll bring the Nitty Gritty!

Yep, I've got some Nitty Gritty, too. I'll have to look for Merle - most of his stuff was on my cassette tapes - But I've got a little Chris Le Doux and some of the best Bluegrass instrumentals ever recorded. Might even be able to find some Ben Colder! laugh

Oh, and just a bit of Don Williams and George Strait for my special gal! (It is our anniversary, after all!) love

I know exactly what you mean.

Oh, and there will also have to be at least one or two very, very special JT songs! (And she will know why!) heart1

Something tells me that you guys are gonna' learn some things (about us) that'll have you believing in God and fate and soulmates and all that mushy gushy stuff! laugh

Not sure - Guess I'll have to check and see if they've raised the legal drinking age above 14.

I guess nothing says that we have to stay there all day. And I've already mentioned "The Meadery" just down the road.

thumbs up

That might work! The road is so curvy that most drunks wouldn't have any problem driving it. (Provided they started off by weaving in the right direction!)

Well we've already been talking about doing it again next year if it works good this year. Surely a year is enough advance notice to get a few extra days off? laugh
