Hello friends and family!

One nation under God, survivor laps, fireworks, and pickin'... just some of the words you will hear more about in this newsletter. Weed the garden in the early morning, snap a few beans, slip off to the lake for a little swim with friends, or head up to sliding rock on the highlands road and jump off the ledge, then get home and pat out some burgers for a little grillin' action. Ahhh, it's summer time in the mountains. I wonder why so many come here to visit and then start looking at the Real Estate Buyers Guide for a home, talking to their loved ones about making Franklin their home?

Lots and lots of articles, photos, videos and more!

Blue Ridge Cuts New Single "One Nation"

Blue Ridge Gospel Music QuartetFrom the beginning to the end “One Nation’s” mixture of oboes, flutes, drums, electric and acoustic guitars, bass guitar, pianos, the children’s voices and Blue Ridge’s rich quartet sound, sounds like a symphony! This song has a perfect message that our country must be One Nation Under God, or else it will just be One Nation Under. See event poster and all the groups scheduled each night...

Don't Forget that Gospel Music Weekend is just around the corner. June 25-27, 2009. See poster of Gospel Music Weekend here!
