Myron just returned from his amazing trip to Nashville, TN for the 2011 IJO Jewelry Show! Eyes were dazzled with many shimmering lights; however, he did take time to escape and play hookie. Some of his adventures included an incredible tour of Kix Brook's Arrington Vineyards.
A little side note about Arrington Vineyards: Today, fully involved with operations at his winery, Kix can often be found strumming his guitar on the chalet deck overlooking the vines that have been planted on the rolling hills.
"It's me and friends in the business -- just guitars, no vocals -- so people don't feel they have to stop and focus on the music," says Kix. "They're there to enjoy the wine."
Arrington Vineyards is open for wine-tasting year round, and when the weather turns warm, the smooth and mellow notes of jazz can be heard undulating over the vineyard hillsides for couples and families enjoying picnic lunches.
Next on Myron's adventure....Graceland!!! Nuff said :)
In addition, an incredible Dinner Cruise on the Cumberland River with live music, following up with a trip to the Grand Ol' Opry, and BB King's Bar.
One of the highlights of the trip for Myron was meeting Dennis Byrd, previous football player for NY Jets. He is such an ispiration to all...never giving up! Dennis was a speaker at the IJO Show and moved everyone to tears with his increadible journey back to walking.
We hope everyone is having a great week!! Check out some photos from the trip below :)
