Happy St Patrick’s Day! We all climbed into our varying shade of green duds to celebrate St Patrick’s Day. The weather was rainy as forecast and we had purposely planned our visit to the Country Music Hall of Fame for that reason. We paid for the audio tour and appreciated the guide through the exhibits. The museum is large. We spent three hours and still feel that we didn’t see everything. What a testament to Country Music.
After the Hall of Fame we walked to Broadway to Margaritaville. Jules had this stop on his bucket list for the Friday Highway Happy Hour with Buzz Brainard. He wanted to check it out even if we couldn’t stay for the show. He and Syl went upstairs to see the stage and the set up and we had lunch and watched the excitement build as people flowed into the bar to wait. There was a live musician who was playing at the front and it was fun to get a feeling of the Broadway Scene. Some excitement at lunch as I felt something crawling around on my arm and on inside my shirt. I reach a hand in the front to see if I could find whatever it was and I did! A big black bug that I immediately flung away from me whilst screeching. (No formal identification was made, however, I named him the Boob Bug.) The BB happened to find its way to our neighbour’s bare leg and she started screeching and stomping her legs to get rid of it. No one noticed a thing - everything goes in Nashville.
The street was building up a fervour for Friday night. There were lineups just to cross the street and party buses and bikes and golf carts and trucks of every sort. There were cowboy boots and rhinestones and fringe and St Patrick’s Day green stuff. It was a PARTY! And it was set to go to the wee hours of the night.
We walked down to the Hilton and Syl went to get the car and we loaded up to head to our third planned destination, Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Centre. What an amazing place. I am including pictures as I am unsure of how to capture the opulence. Perhaps if we return we will plan on spending a night or two there. We shopped in some of the nice stores they have along the concourse and bought some of the famous Nashville GooGoo Bars, watched the riverboat glide by on the indoor river and saw the DJ making the radio show for WXM NASHVILLE (the radio station is the Opry.
Afterwards the Pro Bass/Cabela’s was a quick stop for Julien, Dad and Syl. It is the biggest one they have been to and includes even a shooting range; if that’s your thing. Syl got the hat that he’s been wanting and Dad got some shirts.
Then it was off in search of the famous Banana Pudding at Edley’s Barbecue in East Nashville. What a lovely and lively neighbourhood. It is the place where Oprah Winfrey grew up and is filled with sweet homes and businesses. The restaurant is next door to Reese Witherspoon’s store, Draper James which was unfortunately closed when we finished our meal. The lineup was short when we arrived but grew exponentially while we were there. The hostess was great and got us a spot in a short time. We all had something different but all delicious and topped it off with the Banana Pudding which was divine.
Back to the hotel for our last sleep in Nashville. The Leafs won their game, Julien got his Uber Eats Pizza (we couldn’t convince him to try anything different on this trip). We spent another great day in a wonderful place. We certainly had the luck of the Irish today. 🍀

Teenagers Mari (Sandra Cassel) and Phyllis (Lucy Grantham) head to the city for a concert, then afterward go looking for drugs. Instead, they find a gang of escaped convicts who subject them to a night of torture and rape. The gang then kills the girls in the woods, not realizing they're near Mari's house. When they pose as salesmen and are taken in by Mari's mother (Cynthia Carr) and father (Gaylord St. James), it doesn't take the parents long to figure out their identities and plot revenge.

We recently had the absolute pleasure of unboxing My Mighty Journey: A Waterfall’s Story written by John Coy and beautifully illustrated with original color wood engravings and prints made directly from found materials by Gaylord Schanilec, in collaboration with Paul Nylander and Barbara Eijadi. We had to pry open box after box after box to reveal the 18″ x 24″ book. Fully opened, the children’s book is nearly 4 1/2 feet wide! Much bigger than a child! Luckily, the text and images have also been turned into a trade edition for children.
The book tells a story about the evolution along the Mississippi River, as imaginatively told by the longest resident in these parts, the St. Anthony waterfall in downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota. The waterfall as narrator playfully explains all of the changes the river has been through over its 12,000-year journey of 15 miles. The act of turning the enormous pages adds to the illusion of years passing for the reader.
“I am a powerful waterfall.
I listen.
I pay attention.
I have a long memory.
You might find it hard to believe
but I have moved through time.”
We had a sneak peak of the publication when Gaylord Schnilec was the guest artist in our annual Ettinger Book Artist Series in February and a couple of days later when our department head Max Yela was a featured participant in the opening events for the exhibition “Gaylord Schanilec: A Natural History” in the James Watrous Gallery of the Overture Center for the Arts in Madison, Wis.
Schanilec’s Midnight Paper Sales is the imprint, and the images were hand-printed on Mohawk Superfine paper, with the text handset in Bernhard Gothic foundry type printed on handmade Cave Paper produced by Amanda Degener in Minneapolis in an edition of 40 copies. The volumes were hand-bound and the covers and boxes constructed by the project participants.

ABOVE: Princess Grace and Prince Rainier of Monaco are offered a 4½ pound rainbow trout by Roy Hodges, of Hamilton, N.Y., at Philadelphia Travel and Vacation Show. Princess had hooked a fish in pool at the show, but it got away.
Princess Opens Travel Show
Throngs Hail Grace, Rainier
By DONALD A. McDONOUGH and LEONARD J. McADAMS
The Philadelphia Inquirer - April 20 1963.
The royal couple of Monaco Prince Rainier and Princess Grace, celebrated their seventh wedding anniversary here Friday with a day on the town and they enjoyed it as much as any couple that manages to get out of the house for a few hours without the children.
They received the cheers of thousands in a motorcade from City Hall to Convention Hall to formally open the Philadelphia Travel and Vacation Show.
Mayor James H. J. Tate gave them a print of Old Philadelphia, little girls gave Princess Grace flowers, and the entourage even did a little fishing in a pool in the basement of the hall.
Princess Grace hooked a big trout and lifted it halfway out of the pool when the fish - probably nearsighted - jumped off the hook.
But this was hardly the highlight of the day for the stately and gracious blonde from East Falls who became a princess. It came probably when the Prince publicly apologized in the Mayor's Reception Room for depriving Philadelphia "of your loveliest citizen.
Crowds had formed early at the northeast corner of City Hall awaiting the arrival of the royal couple for the city's official welcoming ceremonies.
By 10:30 A. M. some 1000 unofficial greeters were on hand. They cheered and clapped as Princess Grace stepped from the car accompanied by Prince Rainier, her mother, Mrs. John B. Kelly, Sr., and her brother, John B. Jr. The children, Prince Albert, 5, and Princess Caroline, 6, had been left at home.
City Representative Fredric R. Mann took the party in tow and led it via elevator to the second floor where an honor guard of police lined the hallway to the Mayor's office.
Princess Grace wore a two-piece red wool suit, designed by Philippe Venet, a flowered blouse, navy pumps and handbag and a blue hat. For jewelry there were a gold pin and gold earrings. As counterfoil, Prince Rainier wore a dark pin-striped suit with a white handkerchief in the breast pocket.
Mrs Kelly was clad in beige with brown bag and shoes and a tigerskin hat. Mrs. Tate, who with her husband, Mayor Tate, greeted the party first in the Mayor's office, completed the fashion ensemble with a blue suit, yellow scarf and hat.
From the office, Mayor Tate and Princess Grace led a procession to the front of the Mayor's Reception Room. The party sat at the right of the speaker's stand flanked by flags of the United States and Monaco. Some 200 persons were in the room, including members of Philadelphia’s consular corps, judges, councilmen and city officials.
TATE EXTENDS WELCOME
Mayor Tate in his official greeting made note of the wedding anniversary and extended a welcome to Prince Rainier and his wife, "a native daughter."
In response, the Prince said "A little more than seven years ago I came here for the first time to your city. It was not as an official guest and it was not to attend any official function. For me it was much more important than that. I had decided to deprive you of your loveliest citizen.
"Having now been forgiven I hope, Mr. Mayor, we are proud and pleased for the warm and wonderful welcome we have received. In these moments the memory of a great Philadelphian, John B. Kelly, remains with us and he would be proud that his son, John, is following in his tradition.”
HEADS TRAVEL SHOW
John B. Kelly, Jr.. is head of the Philadelphia Travel and Vacation Show which will run through Sunday, April 28.
The "warm and wonderful welcome" continued as crowds lined a 12-car motorcade route down Broad St. to Walnut to 34th to Convention Hall. They clapped, they waved, they cheered and whistled.
At Convention Hall, Princess Grace, on the arm of Mayor Tate, made her way through a throng of some 300 persons on the steps to cut the blue ribbon formally opening the show.
CRUSH TAXES POLICE
Then the crowd surged around the royal couple and with flashbulbs popping and police attempting to open a way through the crush for a time it looked like a movie mob scene at an ancient Roman temple.
Ten minutes later they entered Convention Hall but still found difficulty in moving with throngs jammed in the five aisles along which the exhibition booths were lined.
The Princess was given a bouquet by Marcia Freedland, 6, of Philadelphia. Preceded. followed and flanked by photographers they made their way slowly along the booths, accepting samples here and there.
SALAMI FAUX PAS
One booth attendant handed them slices of salami. Some of the party started munching when Jack Kelly exclaimed: 'Oh, gosh, today's Friday. I forgot."
"It didn't count." Mayor Tate said. "They didn't think about it." The royal couple are Roman Catholics and a Church law forbids eating of meat on Fridays.
Several times spontaneous bursts of applause came from the crowds in the gallery.
Princess Grace remarked to her husband: "This is where they play professional basket ball."
POINT TO MURAL
At the Monaco exhibit, the royal couple pointed out points of interest on a large mural to Mayor and Mrs. Tate. Princess Grace said the mural had been made especially for the show.
"You are a very pretty girl," the Princess told Evelyn McCombs, 7, of York, Pa., who presented her with another bouquet.
At the fish pool downstairs the party tried its hand with hook and rod. The Princess and other women in the throng screamed when she hooked a trout, then screamed again when it threw the hook and flopped back into the pool.
"Do you give up, Gracie?" asked her brother, Jack.
"Yes, Jack, I give up," she replied.
The party then left for a 12:45 P.M. luncheon for the immediate family in the rare-book room of the University of Pennsylvania. University president Dr. Gaylord P. Harnwell and Mrs. Harnwell were hosts.
