The only thing I know about Lawrence, KS, was that it was where all the big stuff happened in The Day After.
I like the ruffles.

I now know that it's a college town, with a good Ren Faire.

Kathy, I was imagining all of that at Dollywood. I'm sure Dolly would be impressed and enjoy the hell out of it but I'm sure we'd freak everyone else out.
They've seen bigger spectacles than us. Dollywood has its annual Out at the Park day as part of East Tennessee Pride Week in early June—imagine Gay Day at a Disneyworld owned by Liza Minelli.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I would be happy with any of these choices. Well, maybe less so Branson MO.
Nashville wouldn't be my first choice, but that's only because I'm from there, and I'd like to see cities I haven't seen before. And I haven't been there in fifteen years except for one quick visit, so I wouldn't be much good as a tour guide. Except that if we do go there, I'm dragging everyone with me to see the Parthenon. The Athena statue is finished and I haven't seen it complete!
I've been to Chicago, but that was for business. I wouldn't mind going back as a tourist. Everyone I know who's ever lived in Madison WI has loved it.

Mostly lurking...
We should do Lawrence, Kansas!
Lawrence is VERY fun, and my SIL is an event planner there and could probably help, if we wanted to do that.

I've been to the Parthenon in Nashville, and saw the Athena--it's very cool!! (It was with a F2F with the board I was in before I discovered Salon and Table Talk.) We stayed in the Holiday Inn across the street from Centennial Park, and so were able to walk over and check it out. Also, the downtown is very cool to walk around, there's tons of great music and food, and it's well situated with transportation options (planes, trains, and automobiles).

Basically, it puts West Tennessee Pride Week to SHAME.
