Cool Tree, Castle, Old Home, Blooms, Cabin, Chimney, Rock Fence, Blooms Around the Yard

On the way out of Lebanon, where

my brother lives, I spotted this 

tree. So CoOl looking so 

of course I had to 

take a shot of it.

Have you ever been to Arrington, Tennessee

in May? Every weekend 

a Renaissance Festival is held. 

I have been once, I loved it.

I think in 2026 I will go again..

There is also a castle on the 

grounds. I did not get there

early enough to tour the 

castle but I think I need that

on my bucket to do list!

I shot this pic on my way

to Ray's house. 

The castle shoots up over the tops

of the trees, overlooking the 

interstate and waving it's flags

at the passing cars.

I went down main street when

I got to the city Ray lives

in and just had to stop 

to look at this house.

My friend Debbie used to 

live in Lebanon and I 

was there a lot. I have

always loved this house.

So, I stopped to take

this photo and enjoy looking

at it again.

But just down the street

from that home, this caught 

my eye. Not sure if that is 

one snowball bush or several

together. But the blooms are

amazing.

Through Lebanon, and the 

square I traveled to head

out of town into the country

side. I spotted this building

on the road to his house.

Having a chimney, I would

say that some homesteader

once lived here.

Speaking of a chimney, 

this stands on the side of the 

same road but not on the 

same property.

These types of shots just 

call to me.

As impressive as this line

of rocks are, they do not 

photograph well at all.

I would say these might have

been here awhile, but 

not as long as most would think.

No weeds, or vines

growing over it.

However, a bit down the road,

I would say these might have

been here a lot longer.

Did you catch the deer looking

at me?

There is a long stretch of this 

wall. Once known in the 

south as a slave wall. Plantation 

owners used to have their slaves

put these walls together, stacked 

on top of each other, no concrete

and nothing to hold them together.

Things seemed to be so much 

simpler then.

For simple, 

just some simple

pics from around the 

yard.

My challenge to you,

go out and smell the flowers,

don't have to be roses,

just flowers.

Smile,

Pam
