Knoxville Nook

Down a city street, tucked in between all the houses, a pretty little wooden gate invites you to come into the private, secluded, harmony of my daughter's backyard. If you walk along the sidewalk and see a yellow country cottage with a narrow side yard newly covered with mulch and your heart wants to travel towards the vine arch that protects those who enter, then, my friend, you will know you are at a special place. My daughter wants to name this special place Daffodil Cottage, but alas she is moving. Leaving behind this special place that she turned into a little cozy spot for her husband and herself. They are putting their special place up for sale this Tuesday, packing their bags, and moving to Huntsville, Alabama. It is closer to me, but I know she will miss her nice big kitchen along with the rest of this house.
