Quite an experience

Yesterday was quite an experience as we went through another day of Leadership Rutherford.  As usual, it was a jam packed day.  We went from meeting with the folks at the Murfreesboro Fire Department to meeting with Judge Don Ash, Chancellor Corlew and the amazing Judge Donna Scott Davenport. 

Following the spots on the square, we went over and toured the county work house and the new jail as well...which is progressing quickly. 

Then came the real excitement-as we were on the way to tour the County jail, our bus was hijacked.  A man came on to the bus letting us know he was taking control of the group.  After the bus driver rounded the next corner, the Rutherford County Sheriff's Department had their swat team ready and stormed the bus! Talk about a wild experience!  The threw in flash bombs, jumped on the side of the bus with suction  cups and flooded the inside of the bus.  Of course, it was a big setup, but none less tense.  Thanks to all the folks we met with for a great experience!
