Backyard inspiration

When people ask me what my dream job would be, without hesitation I say, "Hands down, Travel Writer/Photographer."

That wasn't always what I wanted to do. I've also wanted to be a:

-Touring singer or background singer

-Music video dancer (*sigh* if only I were in my 20s in the 90s...)

-Songwriter (this is why we moved to Nashville)

-Actor

Now that I think of it, I actually have done all of those things in some capacity. Maybe not to the extent that I had dreamed of, but nevertheless, I have been each of those things professionally (even a music video dancer - if dressing up as "Coconuts the Kangaroo" for a kids music video counts!).

So maybe that's why I'm onto my next new adventure. If you're familiar with the Enneagram I've got one number for you: 7. (Side note: I've found the Enneagram to be very helpful in discovering things about myself that have allowed me to accept and appreciate my quirks that have traditionally driven me crazy. I highly recommend it!)

All this to say, I love travel and I haven't been able to get out of town recently due to work and, well, the phrase "starving artist" exists for a reason. So since it was beautiful yesterday, I decided I wouldn't waste the opportunity and decided to drive five minutes to our very own Downtown Franklin; after all, it has gotten so many titles, accolades, and hype - so I thought I'd go see it with fresh eyes.
