Best of Chattanooga

Well here I am in New York... sidewalk cafe, laptop computer and Wi-Fi...what else do I need in life? (I will lie and say that I didn't cry a little when I kissed Lydia goodbye.)

So I have found a noticeable trend whenever I visit New York. I have this same conversation with whomever I meet. 

"Natalie, where do you live?"

"Chattanooga, TN"

The person pauses and looks at me with a confused look on their face, head nodding to indicate that they have heard me. Then they reply,

 "Chattanooga huh? So.....what's that like?"

I can understand why Chattanooga may seem like a random little parcel of land to call one's own. When Shane told me that he had been offered a promotion in Chattanooga, TN I had that same hesitation and then asked "The place with the train?"

Now, 4 years later I can say that I honestly love living in Chattanooga. I've decided that a fun little thing I could do is have a monthly post showcasing some of my Chattanooga favorites. Just my opinions on fantastic aspects of this little city that I am currently calling home. And let's make it a little more interesting. I will throw in a few giveaways just for fun. Keep reading! There are two fantastic giveaways below.
