Perfect Sunday Drive
We have been very blessed here in Knoxville. Although it doesn't happen very often, the Redbuds and the Dogwoods are out together. So, I said to my handsome husband on Sunday, April 13, 2014 that we should drive the Dogwood Trail in Sequoyah Hills.
The Sequoyah Hills trail was the first Dogwood Trail in Knoxville and, in my humble opinion, still the best. Bordered on one side by Ft. Loundon Lake and with rolling hills, the Sequoyah Trail is by far the most picturesque.

| Talahi Park |
Although I went to the ribbon cutting for the re-dedication of Talahi Park last week, there were too many people to take good photos. I couldn't resist going back and taking photos.

| Before the recent work Talahi had fallen into disrepair |
A great deal of damage from storms and foreign plantings had left Talahi in quite a state of disrepair. Not now.

| The fountain. Simple and beautiful |
The fountain shoots up so high and sprays bystanders. It is wonderful and refreshing. The fountain is simple and beautiful.

| Ft. Loundon Lake |
I love the unspoiled look of Ft. Loundon Lake.
The Dogwoods are breathtaking this year. We haven't had any rough weather to bruise them up until now!
There was high volume traffic and everyone was taking pictures on a perfect Blue Sky East Tennessee Day in Sequoyah Hills.
I thank God every day that I live in East Tennessee.
