Welcome from Middle TN! Come check out our Tennessee threads. There is one for all of TN, one for middle TN, and one for east TN. They stay pretty active. If you are in the greater middle TN area I'd like to welcome you to join us at one of our meet ups. We try to meet up every couple of months. The next one will hopefully be in May. It is always LOADS of fun!
