It's a nice town. My ancestral roots date back to Henry County some five generations.
Have fun!

I'm referring to Hank Williams Jr. I think he's got a place around there. |

The area around there is a great place to get out into the great outdoors or go to the lake. Also, if you're a history buff, the Fort Donelson Battlefield in nearby Dover is worth a visit. |

thanks for all your suggestions .. cant' wait to see the eiffel tower tho . .
i do like history , so that battlefield sounds interesting ..
i'm not much good at walking' distances' ,but i'll sure give it a try . .
the one we have here in adamsville , ''Shiloh'' is way too big for me to walk . .its tremendous. .
bigger than Gettysburg which i've been to many times over the yrs ..
thanks again for your replies. .

Paris, TN claims to have the world's largest fry each year. Since 1961, this event has grown considerably, from 1600 pounds of catfish to over 5 tons of catfish being cooked and served.

If they like outdoor stuff, there's plenty to do. I'm sure there's the usually kids sports stuff; almost every place has that. I don't know anything about the schools there. |
