Again, another lovely courthouse. Will this be a trend for the day? One can hope, no? But you know what I DO know?
This cannon was captured from the Union and has pride of place here. Joy…
I found this interesting, though. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a monument to a Victory ship, much less one named after the county. I’d love to tell you an interesting story about its exploits, but Liberty Ships are hardly known for their combat prowess. It got a Battle Star so there’s that, I guess.
There’s always a cemetery. In the back in the bushes was a trackable hotel.
