The mansion just before sunrise.

The John Deere tractor they have on display at the top of the hill by the horse barn.

It turned out to be the fountain feeding into the fish pond at Ellington Agriculture Center in Nashville, TN.

My nephew pointed out some interesting landscaping in an island separating the lanes as they pass the mansion.

I discovered this interesting walkway connecting the mansion to an out-building. This was about sunrise on a foggy Saturday morning in October 2012.

Green Door

The lights on the Ed Jones Auditorium gave everything a green tint just before sunrise.

Fog Rising

The north portion of the trail offers 2 options - the shorter one hugs the tree line to the south, while the longer trail follows the outline of the creek just north of the treeline in this photo. I made this photo about 30 minutes after sunrise.

Autumn Trail

This is the entrance to the hiking trail from behind the ag center office. Just west of here is a small cemetery.

The frontier cabin in the previous photo I made facing directly in front of the building, but this one was made later in the spring after every thing was green.

Pickups Facing East

A row of trucks parked at the Ellington Agriculture Center with the rising sun and dimming streetlight adding a splash of color.

Reflecting Pool

The pool near the gazebo at Ellington Agriculture Center in Nashville. I had two creatures sitting under the rock on the right watching me.

Moon over the Mansion

A full moon shines down on the mansion at Ellington Agriculture Center at about 6:12 AM when the temperature was about 20 degrees.
