the MATT RADIO Tri-Cities adventure


Matt's heart leaped to Tennessee when he fell in love with Dana,
so now the rest of him follows suit.

Flying over North Carolina,
11 Jan 07, 1:15 pm

Snow in the mountains of Tennessee...

...at 3:00 pm on January 11

Shooting through the plane window...

...over eastern Tennessee


3:06 pm, Jan 11


descending in the plane...

approaching Tri-Cities Airport

preparing to land in TN

Of course Dana's official. She has a badge, you know.

Matt's hotel: the Marriott Conference Center Meadow View Resort, Kingsport, TN

Jonesborough is Tennessee's oldest city...

...and here's Dana in front of its Presbyterian church

As a good deacon,
Matt just had to stop by.

the Christopher Taylor house...

...and all about it

Dana in downtown Jonesborough

Washington County's
court house

The Parson's Table restaurant
used to be a church.

Now it's out of business altogether.

Check out the lingering snow.

Dana and Emily

Dana loves her Newcastle.

It's Em!

Dana in Matt's lap.
Lucky lap.

Laughing at Matt
or laughing with him?

Dana, Emily

at the State Line Bar & Grill, in Bristol


Dana digs the karaoke at the State Line.

I don't want anybody else. When I think about you...”

Dana grooves.

A famous sign on State Street,
a few blocks from the bar.

The city of Bristol is actually in Tennessee AND Virginia.

This side of State Street is Tennessee; the other side is Virginia. The state line is in the middle of this road. Cool!

Dana and Emily are still enjoying the music at the State Line bar.



I'm pouting because Matt won't dance with me.” (Though Matt soon does dance with her, to a karaoke'd “Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me.”)
