Old Hickory Village

Saturday, August 11, 2012 - 8:30-9:00 ish - ???

We've had a brutal Summer, but there's relief in sight for tomorrow, with a high of 85 and no rain!!!







We're going back to our "find of the year" - Old Hickory Village - the "place from the past" where the houses are cottages and the people are friendly. This is just off Old Hickory Blvd., North of The Hermitage and South of the Cumberland River. Besides the charming houses, there is a Black Jack Cove amd the marina restaurant, the Black Pearl, on Riverside Drive.

Suggestion:
Google "Old Hickory, TN" just to see the Village.  It's only a few blocks long, bordored on the NE by Riverside Dr., on which are some lovely old homes.  Riverside Dr. follows Old Hickory Lake. 

Directions: From I-40 East
Travel I-40 East past the airport ... Take the Hermitage Exit #221A  (toward The Hermitage)
Stay on Old Hickory Blvd. past The Hermitage and through the little town of Lakewood.
Old Hickory is just past Lakewood
Veer to the Right at Hadley Ave. (across OHB from the Old Hickory Country Club)

The whole area is worth painting, but you might narrow it to between ...
   Hadley and Riverside Dr. and 14th and 18th.

Please remember this is a quiet neighborhood and we are visitors ... if you see a property owner, it's a good idea to get permission to photograph or paint their home.

Happy Painting!
