After waking up to 20-degree weather in Missouri, I had high hopes of warmer temps down south. I was in for a surprise when I looked out the airplane window to find snow on the ground. Fortunately, my disappointment faded with the sunny Nashville sky and the warm southern hospitality of course!
I really can't complain about the weather. We're staying at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel, which is practically a tropical getaway with the amount of vegetation and landscaping they've got! The hotel itself is practically a little village and the layout is quite tricky. Luckily, I haven't gotten lost yet...knock on wood!
Just look at these gorgeous pics and you'll wish you were here!
So far, the schedule has been non-stop and I can't wait to share all of my stories with you. First of all, let me just say we're lucky to be working in such a great industry. Events like Commodity Classic are great reminders of the opportunities available to us, especially when it comes to networking!
While waiting to register, Ashley (the other student blogger) and I met some nice farmers in the lobby area. Turns out, they're from Lockwood, MO, which is just about an hour south of my hometown. What a small world?
By the way, you can check out Ashley's blog too! With all of our events, there's plenty of new information. Be sure to check back, I'll have pics and audio up soon!
