On Friday we took a bus tour. Good Grief, the little bus driver guy drove like a maniac. I thought I was going to throw up a couple times. He talked so fast. After that we took a house tour. It was the Joseph Manigault House. Then we went to the Drayton Hall Plantation. There were three plantations within 10 or so miles from each other but we didn't have time to do them all. Drayton Hall was cool because like all the other house museums, they did not restore it to it's original beauty. There was no furniture. They did not add electricity, air conditioning or a bathroom. The house had what was left of the orignial paint, crown molding but not the windows. The windows were blown out by a hurricane in, i believe, the 1890's. This house was made in 1738.

I can't get this house out of my mind. I can see people enjoying themselves in this house. I want to find more information about this house and the area it sits on.
