Have you ever wondered where it is exactly, that I get all my information for these oh-so-interesting and somewhat fun blogs that I write each and every day?
Well, here’s your answer:

I get my local news from…
…Williamson a.m. (from The Tennessean, but just the stuff that pertains to our County)

…MyYahoo (where else can you have ALL of your favorite stuff in one place… and viewable from ANY computer?!)
I get my legal advice with an “edge” from…
…Bill Handel of “Handel on the Law” (smart-a$s legal commentary Saturdays on 99.7FM)
I get my tech/nerdy news from…
…Slashdot (…though I must not be as geeky as I thought, much of this goes beyond my level of interest)

I get my financial advice from…
…Dave Ramsey (we subscribe to his basic philosophies, but he goes overboard at times)
I get my “news with a twist” from…

I get my motivation to blog on a daily basis from…
…me (…and the fact there’s far too much fun stuff I’ve done and interesting things I’ve learned — to NOT share it with others would be stupid.)
We moved from Florida to Tennessee in 2001. All signs point to the fact that we will probably retire here — by choice. We L O V E Nashville! Our favorite places to live are just south of the City — we’ve had houses in Brentwood, Franklin, and Spring Hill. And we have properties in Leipers Fork, Cookeville, and Lewisburg. This site is where I share my best tips for moving your family to Nashville and/or visiting Nashville for the first time — with the ultimate goal of helping you find fun things to do in Williamson County and Davidson County. When I’m not out & about enjoying the Nashville area, you’ll find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites). To date, I’ve written over 500 articles on this site! Many of them have upwards of 100K shares.
