Last week’s 2012 Commodity Classic is now history, breaking attendance records and leaving attendees with many unique memories, including a resort storm shelter drill as the historic storm system passed over Nashville Friday.
The Gaylord Opryland facility handled things well considering the gargantuan size of the place, and we appreciate colleagues Chuck and Cindy Zimmerman of AgWired.com for sharing their coverage since we got on the road toward home just in time before the storms hit.
