Remember when summers were boring? I don’t. Gone are the days of complaining to our parents that we’re bored, and now as the days of US being complained too. 😄 I get it now. Bless you parents for all the entertaining, the vacations, the activities and playdates. I am sending each and every one of you a gift basket with endless amounts of wine and cheese. #drinkup Gone are the days of boring summers because we are officially adulting y’all. Whether it’s working, parenting or juggling BOTH we’re in this together. But what isn’t gone are day trips near Nashville you can take year round.

Kid Friendly Nashville: Stillhouse Hollow Falls

June 21, 2018January 14, 2019by Lindsay Cottrill5 Comments

If you’ve been following LtL for a while, you know my fond affections to hiking with my family. I’ve put in the time to find some of the best kid friendly trails near Nashville. We used to hike quite frequently when we lived in the Pacific Northwest – one summer I actually set out a goal to hike 100 miles before we left Washington! While we didn’t rack up that many miles, we had a blast making the memories in the mean time. Since moving to Tennessee last year, I still wanted to make it a point to find family friendly trails around Nashville and continue making those special memories with my family. Recently I found a kid friendly hike just south of us near Columbia that led to a beautiful waterfall! Continue reading “Kid Friendly Nashville: Stillhouse Hollow Falls” →

Family Friendly Nashville: Fall Creek Falls State Park

January 26, 2018January 14, 2019by Lindsay Cottrill5 Comments

Every so often I’ll catch a spontaneous ‘bug’ and want to go off somewhere with B like we used to do in the PNW. I loved our time away together and the memories we’d create. When I can I’ll do some research and find a kid-friendly destination within a two hour driving radius. Instagram is usually my go-to when searching for local fun spots. If you just search through some hashtags and adventuring photographer’s feeds you’re bound to stumble across a number of interests! When it comes to hiking, I’ll usually take the next step in my research reconnaissance and google the trail or park and see what other hikers are saying about the conditions of the trails, difficulty, and whether or not it’s kid friendly. Our most recent kid friendly hike was to the Fall Creak Falls State Park in the upper Cane Creek Gorge. Continue reading “Family Friendly Nashville: Fall Creek Falls State Park” →
