Back in October, Mike took me on a surprise date to the Opry to see Vince Gill and Allison Krauss. I have loved both artists my whole life, growing up under the wing of my bluegrass and country music loving family. I loved to sing along with Vince's classically smooth voice and, I admit, I cried every time I heard the song "Go Rest High (On that Mountain)." We saw him in concert at the Allentown Fairgrounds when I was young, probably around 10, and I developed a huge crush on him... which hasn't exactly gone away! Allison Krauss was a huge inspiration to me, especially in my choir days. Her range and unique sound are nothing short of incredible and I remember listening to her Allison Krauss and Union Station CD on a loop in the basement while Dad worked out.
