On our days off, Mr. Handsome and I enjoy spending time in the great outdoors. We love Tennessee because it is usually warm enough to be comfortable outside from March through November. When the hot weather hits, one of my favorite places to visit is Cummins Falls in Cookeville….
Nashville attractions
Christmas Lights in Nashville
This holiday season, we visited two iconic Nashville attractions to see Christmas lights. Do you enjoy viewing Christmas lights?The first place we visited was Cheekwood, a historic estate that has both a botanical garden and a small art museum. We enjoyed walking the one-mile loop through the outdoor lights, touring the mansion, and browsing the art museum.
As we have for the past few years, we also walked through the three beautiful atrium at the famous Gaylord Opryland Hotel. Opryland is magical at any time of year, and Christmastime is no exception! This year, a portion of the parking lot was blocked off because they are building an indoor-outdoor water park called Sounds Waves, a very appropriate name for a Music City attraction.
In the largest atrium is a huge fountain that shoots water to the beat of Christmas carols.
Outside, they had their usual manger scene and giant tree made of white lights.
