if you like baseball, and we certainly do in this family and you are ever in the area, check out Shoeless Joe Jackson's museum. It is dedicated to his life in person and in baseball. He was an amazing baseball player and set records left and right. His batting average of 356 ranks amongst the highest.

The cemetery was located across the street from my hotel and I had some time to explore. I love historic cemeteries!! It was so peaceful and serene to stroll about the grounds. There is a whole section devoted to unknown soldiers of the Confederacy. So many old & deteriorating gravestones. A lovely place for a stroll and contemplation. I do recommend--great history!
