<br /><div> </div><div>This post is from Savannah, GA. I've heard many great things about Savannah, the town and its people, and I wasn't disappointed. I can always count on great Southern hospitality when I'm in the deep South. This city has a lot of history and many stories behind it. The only regret was not visiting a cemetery and opting to go to River St. River Street was so overrated and dumpy it was a let down.</div></div></div></div></div></div>

This house is very amazing considering it is well over 200 years old. Photography was not permitted inside of the house. Everything inside is the original and is very preserved. Ironically, Thomas died on July 4, 1826, exactly 50 years to the day that the Declaration of Independence was signed.</div></div></div></div></div>Ronhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12902983138851666188noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293914758771992469.post-91877919819166676792010-11-14T09:42:00.000-08:002010-11-14T09:48:55.887-08:00Paris, Tennessee<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sW-i86DAR2w/TOAgzB-wgMI/AAAAAAAAFEk/lSWfZrI3oPo/s1600/IMG_4421.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539463602742788290" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sW-i86DAR2w/TOAgzB-wgMI/AAAAAAAAFEk/lSWfZrI3oPo/s320/IMG_4421.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sW-i86DAR2w/TOAgy8YQjnI/AAAAAAAAFEc/vcCS8c8E9ek/s1600/IMG_4413.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539463601239133810" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sW-i86DAR2w/TOAgy8YQjnI/AAAAAAAAFEc/vcCS8c8E9ek/s320/IMG_4413.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sW-i86DAR2w/TOAgydPLcgI/AAAAAAAAFEU/acHUvozktSc/s1600/IMG_4411.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 214px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5539463592879550978" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sW-i86DAR2w/TOAgydPLcgI/AAAAAAAAFEU/acHUvozktSc/s320/IMG_4411.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div>I always wanted to visit Paris and see the Eiffel Tower and I did that.
