Loveless's changed hands not too long ago. Funny thing is - everyone loves the place but the only time I ever ate there, the ham was tough, the chicken greasy, the waitress surly and the ketchup spoiled. Not on my list of places to go.
Four years ago, we went to Sunset Grill, Finezza Tratoria, and Herbert's. But I think Herbert's closed last year. Bummer. My children loved it - called it 'Pig On The Roof'.

atl isn't far from nashville...hows about moving da party up to hotlanta?
I am sorry the en people are getting a little e on the whole thing. As for me, would love to see some of us, our friends, come down and see the sites, and do some fun stuff.
This summer, atl is opening up the huge aquarium downtown. Plus there's so much to do here...and it's easy to find an inexpensive hotel in the metro area. Lots of fun for kids to do here. Am offering up atl if you guys wanna come 1 weekend...when I am not wearing pager that is...

Why would the EN people get upset about a hottub? You would think that most of the BS' would??? That is just my opinion. Sorry don't want to offend anyone! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" /> I am right off of 57 and near 55. How close are you to there? I know 57 goes straight through Memphis. I know a lot of people from the JFO forum as I was posting there for almost two years! Will I know others? I feel so lonely! Left out <img border="0" alt="[Teary]" title="" src="graemlins/teary.gif" /> wahhhh! OK kidding there! I sure could us a vacation right now! later, Ali~

Did you know that Tennessee is the 2nd state in the nation in terms of the number of equine animals. 4th for horses but 2nd for all equines if you include donkeys, horses, and mules.
And one of the strangest events I have ever seen at the State Fair was the donkeys competing in [censored] Jumping. They didn't actually jump over a raccoon. They jumped over an adjustable high jump. Can you imagine how many hours those people spent trying to teach those silly donkeys to go over that jump?

When my folkes were still up to making the trip to TX, they tried to be at home from Mule Day.

We don't have a date. We were just kicking the idea around. I think I'll post a poll and see when we would get the best attendance.

Nick! How are you?????
I am so excited to see you!!!
Still biking around Virginia?
Listen, I have a small problem. You are in my address book but the address is OLD. And everything keeps bouncing. I sent you something tonight that has probably already come back. I would like to update my book - it's almost all oldtimers. Will you please email me at cinderella4mb@yahoo.com and I will send you the photograph. Really stunning.
I have been thinking about you.

I think a hot tub party sounds great...it would be good to stretch the legs with some MBer's
I've only been here a year, does that mean I qualify?
or is that not long enough?

Almost anyone who has been here a while - long enough to have an interest in coming - would qualify. I think.

I'm thinking I'd be interested. I need a vacation ... I'd love to be included in the plans. I've been to Nashville twice (singing) and Knoxville twice (on business)... hardly have gotten to see ANY of the sights - although we (my sisters and I) go to the Ernest Tubbs Record shop to sing on the radio show, and on one of the business trips, we went to Dollywood on the weekend. But not much else. Early summer would be nice ... before it gets too hot. I know how hot it can get in Tennessee. Oh - and I checked out a photo of the hideous statue. While it wasn't the same, I'm sure, as seeing it in real life, it's pretty dang hideous in the photo. And an article I read described it in a rather amusing manner! Take a look!
