The show had a great casts with a high energy production including country Broadway, 5's and 60's, bluegrass, and gospel music. The sets were extraordinary, elaborate costumes, spectacular choreography, state of the art lighting and surround sound. The bears were a part of the show, looking for dinner. It was a fun show and the food was very good. 
Crockett's fame is larger than life-size, and so is his statue on the Lawrenceburg town square. The tribute at the base of the statue states that it was erected to the memory of Colonel David Crocket who gave his life for Texas liberty amid the smoking walls of the Alamo. Built on the site of the town's original courthouse, the square also features a beautiful white gazebo that a person can sit and rest. Some say the town square is "antique heaven." The square is surrounded by charming shops. Cutouts look out from store windows. The Stribling House built in 1885 is on the historic walking tour within walking distance to the town square. We met the owner of the Stribling house. He told us it has six bedrooms and eight bathrooms and that he had the home from a person in Las Vegas, NV.
Lawrenceburg's James D. Vaughan (1864-1941) was the father of Southern Gospel music. In fact, the U.S. Congress recognized the significance of Vaughan's contributions to the origins of this musical genre by naming Lawrenceburg the birthplace of Southern Gospel music. Vaughan's accomplishments include founding the James D. Vaughan Music Publishing Company, which grew to be one of the largest publishers of Southern Gospel music in the U.S. In addition, he formed Vaughan Phonograph Records, which was the first record company in the South, and established Tennessee's first radio station, WOAN, in 1922.
We visited and had lunch at the David Crockett State Park located along the bank of the Shoal Creek. David Crockett-pioneer, soldier, politician, and industrialist - was born near the little town of Limestone in northeast Tennessee in 1786. In 1817 he moved to Lawrence County and served as a justice of the peace, a colonel of the militia, and as a state representive. Dedicated in May, 1959, in honor of one of Tennessee's most famous native sons, David Crockett State Park is located on U.S. Highway 64, one half mile west of the city of Lawrenceberg.
Our friends collect Haggis rocks, which can be found in the creek beds. A Haggis rock is one with a hole completely through it. Heidi has quite a few of different sizes and shapes she has collected in four years. Charles found these shells that can be found everywhere in creek beds in various sizes and shapes.
Our friends could hardly wait to start showing us the sights. This is Thomasville. This guy builds cabins of every sort. Pretty cute.
