If you know me well you are very aware that I like southern things...
I like sweet lemonade, pralines and macaroni and cheese. I like front porch swings, and hearing y'all, But mostly I like the history, Whether it's the civil war, or the underground railroad,, I like the ghost stories that accompany them. I like learning as much of it as I can. Today Em and I emmersed ourselves in that history. We met up with Margie Thessin, owner and tour guide of Franklin on Foot http://franklinonfoot.com/about/ Margie escorted us around this little Tennessee town, that lies just south of Nashville. On our tour we were introduced to the ghosts of Franklin, Tn and the scandals and battles and even love stories of the citizens past. We saw gorgeous antibellum homes, civil war memorials and met the residents of the town along the way. Walking tours are a fantastic way to learn more about an area you are visiting. |
