Thanks to Marisa and Stephanie for photos.

The Vals made another stop on our tour of class hotel restaurants.  This girls' night out in June took us  to the Sheraton Downtown.  (While we can't prove it, it seems we get the exact same guy waiting on us at EVERY hotel we go to. He must be Nashville's Official TG Friendly server. )

Take note: no one actually seems to be eating. No wonder we left hungry.

A few of us Vals attended the Night in White at the Regal Maxwell House Hotel on June 10th.  It's an an annual fundraiser party for Nashville Cares, the AIDS care group here in Nashville.
