Currently the closest the Music City Star (Nashville's new commuter train) gets to Franklin is downtown Nashville (Riverfront Park).

Good news though...

Plans are in the works for an extension to the train's route, with stops in Brentwood and Franklin!

If you're in the Franklin/Nashville area, I'd encourage you to take one of these walking tours. Some are conducted year-round. Others take place only around the Halloween season.

...See how scared you get as part of a small group of people walking the streets at night while hearing about dozens of "well-documented" stories about local ghosts & hauntings!

Okay, here's what I get for slacking...

I wrote an article about our need for a Country Music Walk of Fame 9 months ago, but I never posted it. I don't know why. I guess I was afraid I hadn't thought out all of the details thoroughly enough.

(As if I were the one who'd ultimately be responsible for the creation of such a park, and then its ongoing operation!)

That, and I didn't want to embarrass myself by starting a conversation about something that I truly had no experience with... I was just more or less blabbing some random thoughts... something I rarely do here. I generally try to get enough research & facts behind me to support my theories before I start writing about them.

Anyhoo...

I guess my idea was a good one, because I see there is now a "Music City Walk of Fame" in the works here in Nashville!

Here's the scoop...
