Ymmmmm. Now that's more like it! Sounds awesome. What is your favorite type of sushi? Thai food?
What is Pryor like? Is he funny?

Well, I like Tuna sushi various spicy rolls, tempura, cucumber salad...and a big Saporro to wash it down.
Thai...more spicy than curry based...the lobster coconut soup was excellent.
Pryor is funny, nice, helpful and just an all around good guy. He was very helpful at all the meetings.

 Aw that's sweet! Pryor always seemed like such a nice guy and so smart. Glad to hear that he's as nice in person as he is on the internet!

If you come to Kentucky, maybe you could visit Mammoth Cave. It's supposed to be really cool. Will you be traveling alone? 
I want to visit Charleston, South Carolina. Also would like to go to south Florida but may have to put off for another year since I just started my new job.

My parents, who seem a lot like John Cole in many ways, enjoyed the North Carolina coast a lot. Cape Hatteras.

Have you been there, Kioshk? Is there a lot to do on Cape Hatteras?

Katy, I haven't been there. My parents liked it because it was peaceful and beautiful and relatively undeveloped. They still rave about it years later.
Oh John Cole, you could go to the Grand Old Opry in Nashville. Or maybe blues places in Memphis.

I think John would enjoy Charleston, SC!
Kioshk, I, too, have heard that Cape Hatteras is really beautiful.

Re: June Swoon, It Must be Something in the Water (June 2012 LC thread)
Ugh. I'm still exhausted after yesterday. On top of everything, I accidentally left my keys in the limo when we got dropped off at the wedding, the driver went off and cleaned out the car and threw my keys out (!!!!) then came back to pick us up to take us to the reception. I was lucky though, he went through the big bin and found them. Now I have to drive 30 minutes out to his house and pick the keys up.

+ 1 for Nashville. Only 6 hours from Charleston, WV. Go to Third Man Records, (Jack White's record store). It's tiny inside btw, but they sometimes have shows in the venue space.
Did you know that that Nashville has a replica of the Parthenon?
The American Pickers have an antique archeology store there, but reports are that it's full of show swag and high end antiques.
We've visited a couple of times in the past few years and always find something interesting to do, even for non-country fans.
