We spent a couple of days in and around Franklin as part of a larger overall Tennessee trip and, if you’re ever in the area, I highly recommend making this bitty town one of your formal stops. It could be […]
I’ve been to New Mexico before. I actually lived there for a year when I was two years old. But I’ve been back since. Still, if you can believe it, I hadn’t visited Santa Fe yet. So, when I had […]
