The Good Walk

The moderate, three-mile walk around the North Carolina home of Carl and Lilllian Sandburg includes an abundance of healthy hemlock trees.

We are in Bristol, the city that straddles the Tennessee/Virginia state line that has been made famous by a cartoon gecko standing in the middle of its main street and is also the congressionally designated “Birthplace of Country Music."

Blanton Forest State Nature Preserve is home to healthy 100-foot hemlocks and other natural wonders.

The South Carolina site of the Revolutionary War battle makes for an easy and informative walk.

Nothing too hard here, but lots of old-world-themed fun (and plenty to eat.)
