Two SSCC members, Elaine Kemp and Mal Smith, just
returned from a trip to Bowling Green, KY, home of
the Corvette, and Nashville, home of country
music. They packed in a visit to the
National Corvette Museum and the Corvette
manufacturing plant, both of which were
highlights. Mal had never been to Bowling Green
and loved it as much as Elaine does. They made
a killing in closeout Corvette attire in the Museum,
too, which made it even nicer! Unfortunately,
there was no sign of any new ZR1 being constructed,
so they don't have anything to report on that new
model.
They stayed at the fabulous Opryland Hotel...2,880
rooms...and even ran into country singing star, Kenny
Chesney while there. Mal and Elaine took a
fabulous tour of the city of Nashville, visited the
famous Ryman Theater, the Grand Ole Opry, the
Country Music Hall of Fame, as well as many other
points of interest. If anyone stays in
Nashville, you must do that! Their favorite
place is probably the Wildhorse Saloon, though...huge
dance floor, full of country western dancers and, oh,
those cowboys!! Ask Mal what she did at the
Coyote Ugly!!
This could very well become an annual venture for
these two Corvette country dancers.
