Tammy Fest II Review

It's a bittersweet day - Tammy Fest II has come and gone, but the memories will linger on until Tammy Fest III.

Sunshine and blue skies would have been ideal, but we didn't let a cold rain put a damper on our festivities.  The food was delicious, the champagne was bubbly, and the music was outstanding.  Stacy's living room floor was covered with our memorabilia.  My favorite item at this year's Tammy Fest was a Tammy 8-track tape that Stacy got on EBay for a buck.  Stacy's favorite item from my archives was a George Jones and Tammy album autographed by both singers in a gold Sharpie.  Alognside the Tammy figurine on the fireplace mantle was a new addition to Tammy Fest - a lead crystal cube with the official Tammy Fest photo etched in it by laser.  Believe me when I tell you Stacy was weepy when she saw it. 

Preparations are already underway for next year's Tammy Fest III.  Tomorrow, as we always do, we'll look through the Tammy Wynette items on EBay, in search of something different and unique.  We vowed last night that for next year's festival, we WOULD have a piece of clothing owned and worn by the First Lady of Country Music, Miss Tammy Wynette.

Yes, aside from the unfortunate "beer in the freezer incident", I would deem TammyFest II a huge hit.  Can't wait for next year!!

Well, that unfortunate incident didn't actually happen on Tammy Fest day, so we won't count that.  We also will gloss over my highly out-of-character anxiety attack before the evening's festivities began.  As for the rest, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.  I've already begun scouring EBay.
