today we headed off to the melrose mansion...the early ones who owned it made their money on cotton and also had several other "HOMES" in the area...most interesting to see and the furnishings were 90% of the owners..we also found out what antibellium means regarding houses it means built before the civil war...so when you heard about an antibellium hose it just means that it was built before the civil war..and i thought it ment more than that ..
we toured the gardens and you can see spring is on it's way..beautiful flowers and grounds..alotf of southern homes have wonderful looking lawns and gardens..
we then walked around town and there isn't much to town just like alot of old towns most of the stores are in malls and on the outskirts of the city limits...
tomorrow heading out...
