		<title>Kathy Does Christmas</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Being home in December is a bit unsettling. I wake up each morning thinking, &#8220;Isn&#8217;t there someplace I need to be?&#8221; You see, since Kathy began touring with her Christmas show in December 1994, she has been on the road 18 years singing Christmas tunes. 18 years!! And the few years she took off (1997, [...]]]></description>

		<title>WV Music Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Even though this year has flown by, it seemed like it took forever for the WVMHOF Induction ceremony to get here. Most of us bought our tickets 6-8 months in advance. I tacked my ticket up on my bulletin board right behind the computer so I wouldn&#8217;t lose it, and promptly left it at home. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Prelude to Charleston</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On the 9th of October 1989, I was sitting on my couch watching TV. Lindsay was sitting on the floor, practicing her penmanship and Bryan was sleeping&#8211; his little head comfortably resting on what was left of my lap. You see, I was miserably pregnant and would deliver Kevin in three short weeks. It was [...]]]></description>

		<title>How I spent my summer vacation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ohmygoodfreakinheck. (That is Utahspeak for Damn!) I can&#8217;t believe it has been 2 months and 3 weeks since I last blogged. Now, I&#8217;m not Catholic, but that sounds a bit like a confession Here&#8217;s how my summer went: On September 2, our family welcomed our 4th grandchild&#8230; a boy, named Brennan Lee. He is the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Top Ten Memories of Fan Fair</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Fan Fair was a magical thing. I say &#8220;was&#8221; because I have not attended CMA Fan Fest since it moved from the Fairgrounds. (I think it has something to do with the aging process, the Nashville heat and humidity and my utter disdain over moving it downtown&#8230;.and yes, I know they sold the fairground to [...]]]></description>

		<title>June 21st</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m fairly certain that most of you know the significance of June 21, 1959. Depending on your hemisphere, June 21st is either the day of the year with the most hours of daylight or the fewest. But did you know that on this day in: 1942: The Japanese fired 17 shells from a submarine at [...]]]></description>

		<title>State Fair</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few days ago I received an email from good friend and kathyfan, Sharon Sikes. In it she told me that her 80-year-old neighbor had recently read a book by Earlene Fowler, entitled State Fair&#8230; and that Kathy played &#8220;a prominent part&#8221; in it. Well, that&#8217;s all it took to send me running for my [...]]]></description>

		<title>So&#8230;.have I missed anything?</title>

Have I missed anything? &#8230;Only a courageous people throwing off the bonds of thirty years of despotism with signs in one hand and cell phones (with Facebook) in the other. &#8230;Only a country decimated by an earthquake, a tsunami and a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Charlotte MI</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, which one of you P.O.&#8217;d Mother Nature? Not that it ranks anywhere near the devastation we&#8217;ve seen on TV lately, but we had gray, wet, cold weather with super-high winds all weekend. I came home with a raging chest cold and a cough that won&#8217;t go away. Aaah, but it was worth it. Flew into Columbus, OH [...]]]></description>

		<title>Just shut up and sing!!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am politically adrift and I hate it. Part of me sees little honor in the practice of politics and the behavior of politicians. The other part reveres the system and wants it to succeed&#8211;for the good of Kiersten, Maddy, James and a yet-to-be-born Phelps. I&#8217;d like to think that I have put in the [...]]]></description>
