A Night Under the Stars with Diana, The Legend!
Aww, Chastain! One of my favorite places ever for an evening out to watch some of the greatest entertainers perform. For years, we’ve made the trek to the Chastain Amphitheater with coolers, picnic baskets, flowers, vases and lovely tablecloths to setup for a magical evening under the stars. We listened to the silky voices of artists such as Nancy Wilson, Johnny Mathis, CeeLo Green, Alicia Keys, John Legend, and countless others we’ve seen at this historic venue. It’s always with anticipation as we sit and the energy of the other attendees takes everything to a higher level.
On a recent evening at the venue, we saw Diana Ross mesmerizing the audience with her beautiful clear voice, striking beauty, and class. At 80, Diana looked gorgeous and moved with ease and charm throughout the night. She was engaging and teased the crowd who came out to show their love. Repeatedly, she spoke of her gratitude and love.
As I reflect on the night, I’m just grateful that we were able to attend. The night under the stars was wonderful, ending with us somehow being at a nearby restaurant sitting around a fire pit, chatting with strangers who had attended the concert as we waited and waited on an Uber to come pick us up. The wonderful thing about life at this stage is that you appreciate the moment and don’t feel that you have to rush to the future. The present is just fine!
