We moved from Florida to Tennessee in 2001. All signs point to the fact that we will probably retire here -- by choice. We L O V E Nashville! Our favorite places to live are just south of the City -- we've had houses in Brentwood, Franklin, and Spring Hill. And we have properties in Leipers Fork, Cookeville, and Lewisburg. This site is where I share my best tips for moving your family to Nashville and/or visiting Nashville for the first time -- with the ultimate goal of helping you find fun things to do in Williamson County and Davidson County. When I'm not out & about enjoying the Nashville area, you'll find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites). To date, I’ve written over 500 articles on this site! Many of them have upwards of 100K shares.

But we also got to witness 'the nation's LAST Fourth of July Fireworks Display' -- which took place at 11:59 p.m. on Monday July 4th. Both were just okay.

It was a scorching hot day in Franklin, Tennessee on the Fourth of July. Jim's brother, sister-in-law, and their 2 kids were in town visiting. We all went to Pinkerton Park for the afternoon, and this happened to be little Dylan's first time drinking out of a water bottle by himself. These photos bring a smile to my face every time.

One of the FUN things I do with photos on Flickr is participate in the 'Day In The Life Of' DILO project. Every month or so, they ask for personal submissions -- 5 photographs which summarize how you spent your day. Here's how my day went.
