The Carter Mansion - oldest frame house in Tennessee - c 1775

In Elizabethton we came across the Carter mansion totally by accident, but here it is.

We were actually just turning around after a missed turn and found this little museum.
A little cottage in front of the "mansion".

Bee-balm

A desperate attempt to keep the weeds down in the mansion garden - don't worry, I completely identify and sympathize!
