Favorite Places Spared from the Tornadoes

One of my favorite states to visit is Tennessee. the scenery is so beautiful with the falls, mountains,caves and parks.

Recently the middle of the state was hit by a number of devastating tornadoes. From  the city of Nashville to a smaller town of Cookeville running along I 40 in an easterly direction.

I have fond memories of photo trips all around these locations and I'm glad none of them were destroyed.

I am however sad to hear about families losing everything ,including loved ones. It will take time to recover and hopefully this event will not repeat itself in the near future.

With that being said I'd like to shares some of my images from Tennessee from past trips.

 A natural rock bridge or arch over the river in Picket State Park. This is very cool to paddle a boat under.

Fort Defiance in Clarksville,TN, west of Nashville.

 A restored grist mill in Pall Mall in a riverside park.You can go inside and see the original grist gears.

Cummings Falls near Cookeville. This is a favorite among the locals in the summer!
