Entrance to the tent
The Vinny's Payne Stewart Trophy
by Janie Stine LaCroix
On Sunday afternoon we took one of the hotel cars out to "The Golf Club" in Kingston Springs, about forty minutes away from Franklin. It is very beautiful countryside with very curvy and hilly roads. It looked like someone just carved a long winding road out of nowhere and then built a beautiful course. The tent for the event was the biggest I have ever been in. It was decorated so beautifully and the theme was "Mad for Plaid".
We found a table as close to the stage as we could get and settled in to watch as the golfers made it in from their first round. Jack Nichlaus played with the junior golfers that day, and when they came in he signed autographs and took pictures with them. He didn't sign for anyone else. I was lucky I got the picture I got. I just scooted in through the crowd of photographers and stayed low and got the shot. (Short people got some reason :)

Outback restaurant was set up at one end of the tent and served steaks, bread, green beans and salad. There was also a bar set up. Cheesecake was served for dessert. It was all so delicious.
After everyone was finished being served, Vince got up on the stage and started the entertainment for the evening. His first song was "One More Last Chance".
Vince Gill
Vince is a great guy and talks so sweet about Amy. He talked a little about the death of Amy's mom on April 30th, and how she brought her mom to their house when her time grew short. He wrote this next song about Amy.
Con Hunley
Con Hunley sang "Georgia On My Mind". He sings that song better than anyone I have ever heard before. Well hear for yourself...
Mac Davis sang "Lord It's Hard To Be Humble" and "In the Ghetto"

Amy Grant closed the show that night. She talked about her mom and one of her last request to her was that she never stop singing.

Amy closed the show singing El Shaddai featuring Vince on his guitar. Awesome!
