Located almost halfway between Knoxville & Nashville Tennesse is a beautiful place called Sparta. Now I have to admit, I haven't spent as much time there as I would like to until just recently. I have a Buyer Agent in my office who is a real go getter as they say. She takes on each of her clients and works so hard to find them the perfect property and she's passionate about whta she does - kind of like a dog is to a bone. She was working with a buyer from Nashville who was looking for the perfect weekend getaway for him & his wife. He wanted a log home and a mountainview - you know something very special. Pam is on her mission to find this buyer his "perfect mountain getaway home" no matter what it takes. Well, here I am one afternoon with Pam driving her to Sparta to look at this log h...

This years Sparta Veterans day parade was clear and sunny Sky's. The streets where lined with several Sparta residents paying tribute to our Veterans - local, afar, present and past. Some of the many parade participants - local military, ROTC, White county high school band and students, Sparta humane society, Sparta and surrounding area fire and police departments, antique cars and residents. Thank you to all Veterans who helped and continue to help keep our country free and safe. You are and will always be appreciated.                           (photos & content copyright 2008)

One of my favorite Tennessee hiking destinations for me and my furry kid (Merlot) is Burgess Falls state park located in Sparta, TN.  As the park is only a short drive this is a monthly hiking adventure that always seems to have something new to experience with each season. The main waterfall lined trail is 1.5 miles which includes several area's to stop and take in bluffs, streams, soaring birds, wooden bridges, rock formations and all the splendid surrounding nature. When in Tennessee or if you are a resident - I highly recommend Burgess Falls State Park. Burgess Falls location and further information. (Merlot obviously wanted to play in the water instead of pose for another photo!)                     (All photos by Christina Williams. Copyright 2008)

                                  This Halloween season there is something creepy and wicked lurking down an old country drive. Standing tall with Erie pride. As you slowly walk closer you can feel watchful ghostly eyes as you approach the SPARTA TENNESSEE HAUNTED BARN! For a delicious hair raising adventure you must experience the haunted barn. Sponsored by the White county young farmers and ranchers to raise funds for a scholarship and a fund for agricultural disaster relief.  Only $5.00 cover charge. Located at Blackheart Farm - Upper Cumberland Regional Park, Hwy 70/Smithville Hwy, 3 miles west of Sparta. Watch for signs.
