Cedars of Lebanon State Park, TN

Being a short drive from Nashville, it has all the things people like for vacations with recreation, a huge swimming pool, multiple campgrounds, cabins, a lodge, etc. But the most significant thing to me is their multiple nature trails in both forest and cedar glades with some rare flowers found only here. I spent yesterday morning walking in the woods and glades (flat dry meadows) photographing flowers and butterflies. Here's just 3 of the photos. To see more go to the gallery for this nature walk
