After seeing Seirra Hull's Tennessee Music Pathways marker, explore Cordell Hull Birthplace State Park (Sierra Hull's family is distantly related to the politician and former Secretary of State). Cordell Hull is noted around the world for promoting the "Good Neighbor Policy," working to prevent World War II and other future wars and promising non-intervention and non-interference in domestic affairs. At the state park, you can hike the 2.5-mile, moderate hiking trail. Cavers can register online with park management three days in advance in order to see the Bunkum Cave during the summer months.
