Pippi,
Greatings from TN. Mike and I (sweet husband) are located south of Nashville by 1 hour 30 minutes. Love your willingness to have life long learning and tackle whatever comes your way. Where we are on our families old dairy farm is a small slice of heaven. We have beautiful cows entertaining us in the evening and amish country to explore in the day. A wonderful state park is also located in our county as well for hiking and enjoyment. In terms of open projects we are building a quadplex right now and a single family house to follow so this summer is very full of opportunity. However out side of that if you just want a place to stay you are welcome here, we are out of the city but close enough. We have a 50amp service if you have a long plug run and could park behind our barn. Water is also available as well. And grey water black water can be dumped just not full hookups but sewer access is available. We are located in Lawrenceburg, Tn. And yes we have lightening bugs here or fireflys. If you would like this in your route just reach back via email and Mike and I would gladly host you. Cheers and safe travels. Karen
