Forgot to post this in May when it appeared in AARP magazine.

They had an article on the Best Cities for Date Night

And for small cites the list went:

1. Brentwood TN
2. Franklin TN
3. Spring Hill TN
4. Novato CA
5. San Rafael CA
6. Charlottesville VA
7. Fredericksburg VA
8. Pittsfield MA
9. Juneau AK
10. Barnstable MA

(Nashville was #1 in the Large City category, beating out SF, DC, NYC, Boston, Portland OR, Denver, LA, Austin and Seattle)

For the 2nd half of the article Best Cities for Making New Friends

In the Large City category Nashville was #3 behind DC and Portland, OR.

In the Small City category Franklin was #3 behind Rapid City and Bismarck. Brentwood came in 6th!

I suppose this refers to folks 50 and over . . .

Seems like someone from TN stuffed the ballot box???

Even folks here in Brentwood are chuckling at this ranking. I mean, date night?? Really?

They said "stargazing" was the attraction here because Dolly lives nearby, although she is rarely at her home on Crockett Road. The last celeb I saw IN Brentwood was Vince Gill at Chik-fil-A.

We have two restaurants I MIGHT consider going to in order to celebrate a special occasion. Maybe when the Hill Center gets some of its new options up and running, we'll be ready.

Maybe it's our reputation as a "bedroom community."

(wink, wink, nudge, nudge)

Yeah, that must be it! I don't get it either. And what's in Spring Hill?

"We" are getting all sorts of press these days.
