Can you believe that we are in the 2nd half of July already in Magical Middle TN? - 07/17/09 09:38 AM
Can you believe that we are in the 2nd half of July already? Time is speeding by! I love August and it rolls into Middle Tennessee with average highs of 88F and lows of 68F. Children are enjoying the last few weeks of their summer vacation. Miss Martha’s Old Fashioned Ice Cream Crankin is held the first Sunday of August at the First Presbyterian Church of Nashville and features some of the best homemade ice cream to be found anywhere.

Magical Middle Tennessee - 07/11/09 11:12 PM
I have been reflecting on what a genuinely super place Middle Tennessee is in the summer. With an average July high of 88 F and low of 68 F, Middle Tennessee’s midsummer nights are breezy and the mornings are refreshing and crisp. July starts off with The Smithville Fiddlers’ Jamboree, which brings in over 100,000 visitors to one of the top rated Bluegrass, Folk and Appalachian Music Competitions in the States.
