Tennessean writer thankful for the Natchez Trace Parkway

Joe Biddle, sports writer for The Tennessean newspaper in Nashville, wrote an article in the Thanksgiving Day edition of the paper titled "Pilgrims thankful they didn't have to watch the Lions".

The title of Joe's article was poking fun at the woeful Detroit Lions football team. But, the rest of the article lists many things that Joe is thankful for in the sporting world, those serving in the military and life in general. He also mentioned the natural beauty that we enjoy here in Tennessee, including:

"I'm thankful for the Natchez Trace Parkway and all its beauty and history. You can stop and learn about our state and see some incredible scenery. You are forced to drive slow. There are no commercial trucks, billboards or advertising to spoil the drive."
