Photo Of The Day: November 4, 2008
Radnor seems to be quite the spot for taking pictures of the Fall colors this year, like this one by long-time contributor elemak.
Photo Of The Day will be a recurring feature for Nashvillest as long you keep giving us stuff to post. Don’t worry–we’ll give you props. Just add them to the pool or tag them with “Nashvillest” if you’re feeling lazy.

Bright & Early: Election Day Purge Edition
Good morning, Nashville. We won’t beat around the bush this morning–we’re just as excited for this to be over as y’all are. But seriously, go vote! If you’re not sure where/how/when/what not to wear, check out our election guide. If you need some motivation, take a look at all of the freebies. The lines are already stretching down sidewalks (we know this because WSMV is liveblogging) and they’re only going to get longer. No matter who you’re voting for, today is big.
- We love us some NiT. Our friends over at WKRN and Nashville Is Talking will be featuring your tweets, blogs, pictures, and videos on-air as a part of their live Election Day coverage starting at 5pm. If you want to see yours included, follow them on Twitter at @nitweet and @wkrn, check them out on Flickr, and add your pictures and video to Nashflix (or e-mail them to pix@wkrn.com on the fly.)
- Report problems. If you notice any shadiness at the polls or experience any of the infamous vote-flipping, contact the Tennessean.

More Reasons To Vote: Free Treats All Over [Freebies]
If you need a better reason to vote than letting your voice be heard, maybe Ben & Jerry’s can change your mind. They’re offering voters a free scoop of ice cream today from 5pm-8pm. We already voted, but early voting counts!
Free ice cream in November a little too… chilly? How about a nice, warm, patriotic donut from Krispy Kreme? Seriously, vote. Do it for the food.
Oh! There’s more! Starbucks is doling out free tall brewed coffees to voters today, which may come in handy if you’re standing in line before work. But don’t forget about Crema, they’ve been giving away free coffee to early voters for weeks.
UPDATE 10:30AM: Reader Annie sent us a tip that Frothy Monkey is also giving out free small drip coffee to voters today. The Nashville Scene’s Bites blog also offers a roundup with a few extra offerings, and check SlickDeals for a frequently updated nationwide list of offerings. We’re sorry to report that our area Chick-fil-a locations are not participating in the rumored “Free Chicken Sandwich For Voters” offer (they were pretty hostile when we called to ask about it). Guess we’re filling up on donuts, ice cream and coffee today!
UPDATE 12:00PM: Grimey’s is giving everyone with an “I Voted” sticker 10% off their purchase today and tomorrow.
