On the other side of it , Nashville is a great place to have the convention . The Gaylord is beyond words and the crowd in Nashville is always top-notch too .
During the welcome dinner , the CEO of the Gaylord gave a speech and said that they had a contract for the next five years . Then he went on to tell how he is a good friend of George Thornton and told stories of hunts they've shared together ! They've been good friends for a few years now and that was straight from the horse's mouth , last month in Nashville . One glad hand is shaking the other it seems ! I don't think it will be going anywhere for awhile .
I'm good with that ! It's worth the 6 hour drive and the expense of the Gaylord for 4-5 days . Already looking forward to next year !
