If Native American history fascinates you, then visit Tom’s Wall, which is the largest memorial to a Native American woman in the United States - an unmortared stone wall made up of 8.5 million pounds of rocks Tom hauled from the Tennessee River and from nearby fields over a period of 35 years. “Tom” refers to Tom Hendrix, and the Native American woman was his great-great-grandmother, Te-lah-nay.

This is an awesome day trip spot in Franklin County. Not too far from The Cedars, great for the lover of the outdoors. A lot of people ask about this site because it is known for the glowing worms at night during certain parts of the year. September through October is the peak time to seeing these creatures.

What a great spot near the Marriott in Florence. In the Summer there is an inground fountain that people flock to to stay cool in the Summer. Swings near the playground. A trail to walk around the park and views of the Tennessee River. The fountain has a light show at night and there is music in the night air.

This is a fantastic park right down the road from us in Tuscumbia. Great for a stroll since there are sidewalks around the park. There are ducks, geese and swans- they even have feeders down there (just bring quarters). Maybe you just want to take a seat on one or the benches and enjoy the view. At night there is a lightshow and music playing.
