This would have been skipped if not for the sign along the interstate. I thought, "Wait, THAT…read moreCrockett?" and yes, this is related to the pioneer Davy Crockett who was killed at the Alamo. A lovely friendly woman at the desk who informed me that they only accept cash or checks, which is quite 1800s if you ask me. I had already used up my cash (need to get more) and have Google Pay or cards. Oh, well. Thankfully, you can still walk the grounds for free and there's enough to see there too. This is the site of the original Crockett Tavern which was established and operated by John and Rebecca Crockett, the parents of David Crockett (1786-1836). It was the boyhood home of the pioneer and political leader of Tennessee. It is located along what was then the main trail from the east to the new frontier which is now US-11 and I-81. Lots to see with artifacts, a Conestoga wagon and memorabilia from the period. I found it interesting and $5 per person is a reasonable entry fee. Parking is a little limited but otherwise I'm glad I spotted the sign. [Review 20141 overall - 466 in Tennessee - 1117 of 2023.]

If you bring the kiddos promise me you'll get them each a coonskin cap. Aww, c'mon! It's Davy…read moreCrockett! Well, what can I say? They do a great job here. The museum is clearly marked and easy to spot right on the side of the road. Parking is easy across the street but it's also right near the residential area and I hate to park anywhere that might disrupt others. Guess they can't do too much about that tho. There is a walk area with adjacent facilities if you want to wash up after your travels. Nothing fancy, but clean and tidy. The museum is mainly open May-October so plan ahead for some sightseeing. The buildings are awesome. Replicas, of course. But nevertheless really cool to see and learn about Davy's early days working at pop's tavern. Try to get here during one of the living history days. Every child wants to wear a coonskin cap and romp around in the green like a frontier kiddo. Just do it.

While taking our Urban Hike through Morristown, we happened across this architectural gem. I…read moreusually travel with my hubby and daughter but on this trip we had our little doggie, Sammi so we were limited on what indoor activities we could do. This location was closed the day we were there, but I am more into the history of the old buildings and I love to go inside and see the inside architecture as well. I wish it had been opened. History: Rose Center is Morristown and Hamblen County's community cultural center. Located in Morristown's first coeducational public high school built in 1892, the facility is named after Judge James G. Rose, Civil War Hero and Chairman of the School Board at the time when plans for construction of the school were initiated. The building operated as a school until 1975, at which time a group of local citizens organized, raised funds to replace the vintage roof, and re-opened the building as a museum and cultural center. This effort was part of the community's celebration of the nation's bicentennial. Thirty years later, the "castle" - as it is referred to by many of the thousands of school children who visit the Center on field trips and other occasions - is a busy place. The Center offers classes for children and adults, meeting space for community groups including the attractively renovated Jean Keener Community Room, rotating exhibits of artwork in the Edith Davis Gallery, historical displays in the Hal Noe Gallery, a look at early schooling in the Historic Classroom, concerts, summer programs for young people, and produces major annual events such as the Mountain Makins Festival, From Africa To Appalachia Celebration, and the International Festival. If you are ever in the area, gps the address and go by and check out this old school building that the locals refer to as the Castle..you will love IT...I promise

The race track officials seem to know what they are doing. It has great facilities. I had no problems parking and getting in and out of. Bathrooms have water and soap to wash your hands. Concession stands didn't have long lines and had a great selection and had reasonable prices. You can see the racetrack from any seat in the house with a great view. Anyway, I called the racetrack and they said it would be ok for me to camp out here overnight. However, when I woke up, I was couldn't get out because they had the entrance gate locked. So, I had to call the race director/ owner to remind him that they said I could stay over. It took about an hour for someone to come and let me out. But, I enjoyed coming here anyway.

Whether you want to come see a show, work on set or brave the stage ENCORE will prove to be a resource for you and your family. This company produces shows for children and adults alike. I've seen the first two productions of their current season. Speaking of season, as it starts to warm up couples around the Morristown area will be looking for something new to do and an outing to the theater makes a great date night. SEASON TICKETS are a great gift idea! Recently I helped backstage with the production for End of the Rainbow, a musical by Peter Quilter, which tells the humorous, touching story of the fabulous Judy Garland. While unveiling incite to the elusive abuse endured by this iconic legend of the silver screen and her unfortunate passing, this show will make you laugh and give you pause. The set was great. Lighting was spot on and under the direction of Interim Executive Director Dr. Dennis Elks, the cast of local actors kept our eyes glued to the stage. Tennessee is the Volunteer State and over this past month it has been an honor to volunteer for Encore Theatrical. It feels good to work alongside other creative, passionate individuals all focused on helping not only our youth but new and seasoned artists alike have a space in which to grow. People can offer their help to assist with costumes, set construction, painting, organization, marketing, community outreach and so much more (all while exercising an old skill set or developing a new one)! Theatre will always have a place in the world as its roots are grounded in storytelling and empathy which connects all types of characters across all walks of life and sometimes you see a performance worthy of an ENCORE.
