Starting Aug 25 thru Sept 5 Silver Dollar City sponsered a Souther Gospel Picnic. Groups, quartets, trios, singles from all over came and sang about Christ's love for you and me. It was wonderful. It started about 10 lasted all day and part of the night. Each group sang for 30 minutes and then you went to another venue and enjoyed another group. The night show started around 6 and one group performed for an hour and then another group came on about 7:30 and performed for an hour. We went once in the evening and stayed about an hour. It didn't open until 4 and then you had 2 hrs to wait. My attention span is just not that long, so only went for it one time.
This year is SDC's 50th anniversery, so if you turned 50 or was married 50 yrs you got a free season pass.
It was always interesting to watch about 300 people try to go thru this opening, but we always managed.
One day when we went in, first people we saw was some friends from around Siloam. He and John were in the same grade and great buddies.
We had a great time during these 12 days. Sometimes we would go out and catch a couple of shows, but Sunday we went early and listened to Dr. Dennis Swanberg (he was really good) and caught 6 shows! By the time we got home I was so tired I could hardly wiggle. I forgot to mention Silver Dollar City is mostly up and down hills.

Very nice post. Amazing what a small world it is. You never know who you may find next to you. You can never misbehave.
