Fri, Nov. 10:  Tallahassee East RV Park, Monticello, FL:  Awoke to sunny skies and cool temps this morning.  Decided to go exploring today.  After some breakfast we headed up Rt. 19 to Monticello and then continued on to Thomasville, GA.  What a nice town Thomasville is!  There were a plethora of antebellum homes in the historic district and the historic downtown was virtually untouched.  All the original buildings still stand and are maintained beautifully.  We parked and walked around the downtown area and had lunch at the Chop House on one of the main streets.  Joanne Woodward was born here and Jacqueline Kennedy stayed in one of its plantations after JFK was assassinated.  Before we got into town there was a huge mansion recently built with a couple of huge wings.  Wonder who lives there?  After exploring around some more we headed home.  Fixing pork chops for dinner tonight.  72 today and sunny.

Courthouse in Thomasville, GA.


Some of the Antebellum Homes







This one was built in 1833!

A little wine and cheese shop in town.

Love this old mailbox.

This shop was built in 1855.

This beautiful live oak dates back to the 1600s!
