Tyler Rose Garden
TylerThe history of Tyler's title of "Rose Capital of the Nation," is a rich one.When a blight that destroyed most of the county's peach crop, many nurserymen turned to growing roses, my great-grandfather being one of those nurserymen, Tyler rapidly gained national attention for rose production. The rose garden is so beautiful that not only is it a romantic place to propose marriage, but it's a perfect place to get married. Not only does this spot have such beauty and rich history, but it's where my Father proposed to my Mother! 53 years later - they are still happily married!

Caddo Lake
Texas/LouisianaCaddo Lake is a different type of lake than most of the Texas Lakes to the west. Caddo Lake is on the Texas/Louisiana border. Caddo lake is special because of it's abundance of cypress trees, plant life, birds and wildlife. Caddo is mysterious but beautiful and that's why you want to visit over and over again. Rent a canoe or boat and just get lost in the quite and awesome scenery. Very romantic.
