Hi and welcome to Nashville! I spent 42 years as a high school principal, retiring recently. While I loved working in education, what excited me and kept me going for the rest of the year were the wonderful trips that were planned. I love to travel! And I love to be with travelers. Along with those who love visiting a new place, I am always excited to see something new, find out what makes a place tick, and have the chance to delight in new experiences. Whether it's a historical sight, an item of local cuisine, or the chance to mingle with locals, It's so exciting to discover new places and see new things. I have a passion for wanting to share with you the history of, the reason for, and the excitement of the Nashville area. It's so much fun to find something new around every corner. The Nashville area is a growing and vibrant community, and I would love to show you around. Although I have places and experiences in mind, I'm always ready to learn what special requests you have in mind so that we can customize your tour. I look forward to showing you around and seeing the excitement in your eyes as you discover new places and new things!

Overview of your Nashville tour

The small city of Franklin, Tennessee, just twenty miles south of downtown Nashville, has been growing steadily during the last four decades. With a population of nearly 100,000, Franklin has much to offer the visitor. The site of a pivotal Civil War battle, this town is a beautiful example of small-town values, people and fun. There's a reason that Hallmark Christmas movies continue to be filmed in this town and visitors always claim a walk down Main Street is one of their favorite activities. Come explore this historic, exciting, lively and friendly city with me!
