Description
ROCK CITY BY PAMELA WILLIAMS
Having driven through Tennessee several dozen times over the years you can't help but notice all the signs to "see Rock City". Of course we would just keep on driving. In 2016 I finally said to the hubbie - Hey let's take the time and go. It was a wonderful side trip and now I want to return to spend more time exploring the area and the beautiful scenic views.
Rock City is a true marvel of nature featuring massive ancient rock formations, gardens with over 400 native plant species, and breathtaking "See 7 States" panoramic views.
It officially opened as a public attraction on May 21, 1932. It got off to a slow start because advertising in those days was difficult, especially since Carters mountain-top attraction was not located in a place that people would just happen to be passing by and take notice. It was at this point another brilliant idea of Carters was born. He enlisted the help of a young sign painter named Clark Byers, who was hired to travel the nations highways and offer to paint a farmers barns in exchange for letting him paint three simple words: See Rock City.
Capturing moments in time is a passion, Sharing those moments with others is a pure joy! Thank you for joining Pamela's photographic journey and remember to share the adventure with your friends and family........your kindness will be forever appreciated! #sharepamsart

All the times I saw the barn signs traveling along US 41 and I have never been. This is a wonderful image and certainly makes me want to visit.
