Today I spotted Tennessee's state wildflower in a thicket of blackberry brambles. This delicate passionflower is as beautiful as anything I've seen at Home Depot.
My mind wandered to the dozens of Bradford pear tree problems in Brentwood. I have to admit, I'm not so thrilled about pest-prevention and pruning Bradford pears.
If I had my way, I'd dig up all the Bradford pear trees and replace them with equally attractive Tennessee redbuds and dogwoods.
Tucked behind the Nashville Zoo is Grassmere, a historic Tennessee estate. The two remaining members of the Croft family bequeathed it as a nature study center. Now, you can tour the historic Croft House and farm as part of your Nashville Zoo visit.
Or, take a virtual walking tour of the historic Croft House and farm below.
I took this portrait of my daughter in her grandmother's garden. We had such a great time at our do-it-yourself photo shoot, I brainstormed a few more portrait-quality spots in the Nashville area.
Nashville has many gorgeous locations for photographing wedding or children's portraits--many at no cost to you!
I'm not Baptist, but I do appreciate the beautiful stained glass panels that grace the Tennessee Baptist Convention headquarters in Brentwood!
The Tennessee Baptist Convention erected a handsome new sign on Franklin Road, but its most attractive feature faces Maryland Way.
How many times have you driven past these horses on Maryland Farms Way? I always enjoy seeing them as we return from the YMCA.
Did you know that the city of Brentwood has created beautiful jogging trails behind this stately pair of stallions? Find out more about Brentwood's Maryland Way Park.
