Cumberland County, Tennessee is very blessed to have some of the top notch medical service responders.  I am always one to brag about how fast these men receive the call and take the challenge of going out and answering the call.  Without missing a beat, these firemen and EMTs do an outstanding job in what they do.  Even though they are going out and doing the handy work, there is always someone else that we tend to forget about--the dispatcher. One of the men I go to church with, Marty Davenport, is one of these people.  He is one of about 25 dispatchers at the Cumberland County Emergency Communication Center who take every phone call imaginable and pages these situations out accordingly.  I am referring specifically to Marty Davenport because he received an outstanding award.  He was ... 12/20/2011

Crossville, Tennessee is home to the world's largest tree house, or so it seems. This is a local hotspot for many people and it is such an awesome sight to see. I went and saw it for myself, it was simply breathtaking; not just because I climbed all nine flights of stairs either. This place was huge! It had many compartments in it that made it so unique. There is a humongous bell at the top to ring--if you can climb that high--along with a mini church on the third floor. This is not just any old church. It is equipped with a balcony, seats for a choir, an alter and even a stained glass window in the form of Jesus! This tree house is the coolest thing I have ever explored. I did a little research on what started this whole thing and USA today had a great article about this place. It was ... 06/07/2011
