It is a short drive from my house to the Trace. Our first stop was at a bridge with the idea of walking across. Unfortunately, the height got to me and I wimped out. Sorry I didn't get a good picture so you could see how HIGH it is.
EDITED 11/7/10 This is a picture of the bridge:) You can't tell but the railing doesn't come too far past my knees - or it felt that way!! I definitely got the "fear factor" and the feeling I didn't need to be up that high!!! Thanks to Randy Fought for sharing the picture. His website is: Natchez Trace Travel and you might even see one of my pictures there!
The colors were just beautiful!! I am continuing to enjoy this time of year and am still amazed at the beauty. Most of the time I don't know which direction to look first. We stopped at one area and went for a short hike that led up to the original trail and walked along it for a bit before we headed back to Franklin.

The Trace is commercial free so you must go into the towns along the way for gas, restaurants, etc. Some of the towns are quite picturesque so that is something on my list for the future. This would also be a great fall ride for you Harley riders:) I'm not so sure about bicycles!! We saw quite a few people riding but I don't think I could make it up the hills.You can click on any of the pictures to enlarge them.

So beautiful! FAbulous scenery and the perfect time of year for the drive.
Lordy thats a big leaf, do you know what kind of tree?
Nice to know that the trace is commercial-free! You can take another crack at that nasty old bridge another time....or not....
Love your fall pictures of the Natchez Trace Parkway. Would love to post a few of them on my Fall Season photo gallery of the Trace, located at Natchez TraceTravel.com. Would that be okay?
Well it looks like I'll have to make more than one trip to Nashville. Once next summer and then again in the fall. The trees are gorgeous. I wish we had a fall season here!
