Good neighbor Karen Tabor took these great pictures of the Eastern Screech owl who returned to Whitland - - same tree - - to raise her two little ones. Thank you Karen!

Neighbors gathered together on a Sunday afternoon in October to enjoy some great chili and cornbread and witness the dedication of the first granite bench installed in the neighborhood by the Whitland Area Neighborhood Association.

The association chose to honor Pat & Dan Burton for their longstanding support of our neighborhood and for their generosity and hard work, particularly when the community is welcomed with open arms each year at the 4th of July on Whitland celebration.

The granite bench is inscribed and the Burtons were grateful and honored by this gift. Enjoy a few pictures from the lovely day in October!

The 2007 Whitland Home Tour was a true success - - we were blessed with glorious weather, lots of happy visitors and smiling volunteers. We should all be very proud! A lemonade stand, capably manned by several neighborhood children even added to the bottom line this year. These generous kids donated a portion of their earnings to the Whitland Home Tour which ultimately benefits Habitat for Humanity by our gift of 10% of our overall total proceeds. That's the true spirit of Whitland - - opening our hearts & homes, giving, sharing and having a great time doing it! Thank you everyone for all the hard work! Enjoy a few photos from the weekend!

Mark Levine, Nashville photographer and location scout, visited the tree located on Whitland during May to take the great photos you are viewing here. As it turns out, the Eastern Screech Owl was a mother of three! Thank you Mark, for the outstanding shots and for sharing them with the neighbors!
