Tennessee Trip

There were a lot of costumes and interesting
instruments on display

September 17-21, 2009: Karen and I drove to Brentwood, TN to spend a few days with Marge and Mike. Karen and Marge have been friends since they were 3 years old; I met them in Freshman year of high school and we've been friends every since.
