I’ve worked at the Kennedy Center now for about six months. In that time I have gotten to know some pretty amazing colleagues and work on great projects for the Center. But if you had told me a year ago that I would soon be at the Kennedy Center Honors in the physical presence of Ms. Dolly Parton and a host of other celebrities, politicians, and business leaders, and that would be part of my job, I would never have believed you.
Last night was quite possibly one of the most amazing, overwhelmingly wonderful nights I’ve had in a very very long time. To go into detail about who all was here and what they did and what they were wearing would take ages and if you really are interested just ask and I will tell you, but let’s just say it was much more than a small town boy from Alabama could ever imagine.
I feel like a bit of a dork, but it’s hard not to be star struck when one of your top musical talents walks beside you. And hearing more about her life and listening to those who know her best, honor her….made me love her more….she has an amazing heart and deserves all of the accolades that are constantly thrown at her.
P.S. Barbara Walters gets extra make up for TV :)

I was thinking about you a lot last night, and was hoping it would turn out to be all that you had imagined. It sounds like it was an awesome night!
