2026 Nashville Reunion Recap

Well, our 2026 reunion in Nashville has come and gone. It was a cherished time. While only 5 of us were able to make it this year, we felt like we were ALL there. The love is real!
Here's a photo album to enjoy. You'll see a bit of the city, the 9-2-5 fireworks in honor of Dolly Parton on 9/25, cowboy boots, our hotel, our smiling faces and more!
Some highlights and things we learned:
Nashville is a warm and welcoming city.
Google maps has directions both for walking and driving.
A sense of direction comes in handy.
All the women in the honky-tonks swoon for Tom--"Dance with me Tom" He is the real deal. A Jewish Cowboy through and through.
Everybody loves Dolly.
The Opry is a grand. And old! It just turned 101.
The Country Music Hall of Fame has a wealth of information. (Did you know there was another Jewish Cowboy who created and tailored the country fashion look? (I bet you didn't.)
Stetsons and cowboy boots are appropriate anywhere.
Splitwise is a challenge and a useful app.
We all feel very fortunate to have known and appreciated and loved each other for so long.
Alan and Lisa had a fabulous trip to India earlier this year.
Boston Logan airport can indeed cancel due to weather.
Dena can get a little grumpy but Tom always has a smile on his face.
The W Hotel was a nice place to stay.
We miss Carol and Julie.
Barbecue and fried foods are delicious and allowed while on vacation.
And more! Ann, Lisa, Tom, Alan---please add your highlights in the comments of this post. Remember to include your name.
And there you have it.
Next reunion 2030. Start planning.
I love you all.
Dena


Ann: Grits, fried green tomatoes, and hush puppies
