Forsythe Park and all of the park like squares in the old
part of town. In addition, we walked along the riverfront.
We saw the Mercer House, the
one that is the center of the book Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, the
house that was remodeled a couple of years ago on the PBS show
“This Old House,” and the home of
Juliette Gordon Low (the founder of Girl Scouts). There
isn’t really a lot that can be said about the walk, but pictures of some of the sights along
the way may express the beauty of the walk.
We had bought some fresh vegetables from a roadside stand near Hunting Island. We decided to find a picnic area and fix these for dinner. We did, and the food was good, but we discovered that, at least when the wind isn’t blowing, there are a lot of gnats in the area. We wound up having to close ourselves into the car to be able to eat without spending our entire effort swatting at the little buggers.
