My buudy's son had brain cancer since age 3. He pulled thru and has started a Foundation geared to helping others like him. Kim and Dennis had a cousin who died in an auto wreck and they had 5 kids. Kim and Dennis took all of them kids in to keep them together. Man I'm so happy to see good things still happen in this world. Link at www.nashvillenews.org

That is awesome! I admit I do still watch this show.

That's awesome and very ironic... I'll be moving to Murfreesboro (probably) in the next year.

HOLY CRAP...not to be shallow, but they make those houses insanely cool...the one that they made for that family that recues all the animals made me cry...and there are some people here who will tell you that that is a very hard thing to do

I'm glad for your friend, it sounds like they are very deserving

While on vacation i tried to see my buddies house but it's still off limits to tours until the April 22nd airing of the show. Now here's a little in sight to the show. If your a really big fan of it quit reading please because I have some bad news about the show. Kim Collins said only one sink works in the house, hardly any oulets for power are hooked up, washer and dryer don't work, all of the rooms are smaller in the new house but the master bedroom and living room, stove don't work either. Lots of other things are still getting worked on as we speak and will continue to be worked on for sometime they're saying. Kim says and I quote "Bam don't get me wrong we love getting the new house buts it's just a T.V. show" She also went to say for what they paid for their house getting done alone they could've helped many families instead of just them. Anyway I thought it would hard to build a working house in less than a week's time and I'm right, lot's of smoke and mirrors.

If you move there, you have to check out the Drum and Bugle Corps competition in the summer at MTSU stadium.... It's Drum Corps International (DCI), if you like the pageantry of horse racing, odds are you'll like this. It's like a hardcore marching band contest...I think it's the semi-finals of their championship or something like that. The kids (I call them kids, they're really college aged) work very hard at perfecting their show and it's well worth seeing.

A "few" band nerds on hand, but, overall, a great show of talent.

After posting that in February, I realized what an idiot I was... I saw Nashville and thought Nashville, TN.
