Well we drove down into the city of Nashville and had a wonderful day!!!! We did a tour of the Ryman Auditorium - a place I have always wanted to go. What a THRILL!!!!! i would love to see a performance there someday. Mary Chapin Carpenter is playing there tonight - a one night concert - we got to see her stage crew setting up for the show.
Following are some photos of our journey through the Auditorium.

This is one of two Provost buses belonging to Mary Chapin Carpenter both were park on the side of the Auditorium - gotta be 50 feet long!!! Big trailers were attached to the backs with all the sound equipment and instruments.

Hope you enjoyed your tour of the Ryman Auditorium as I was thrilled to see it and walk through it. Being a lover of country western music - the Ryman Auditorium was on my list of things to see.
Later my friends - enjoy your weekend.
