Georgia

Old plantation house in Madison Georgia.
02 July 2006 My parents had come across this house in their travels around the state of Georgia via Dad's Harley. It was a sweltering hot and beautiful Sunday, most of the family was home and we all were eager to do something. Mom suggested that we could all go out and find this house again. It sounded like a great idea; we called Aunt Lydia to see if she and Grandma would like to go with us. Grandma is mostly housebound anymore so we though it would be a good opportunity to get her out and do a little sightseeing. Mom knew what town the house was near but all the same we managed to miss it by quite a bit. we had gone in two vehicles Sierra, Moreia, and Myself in one vehicle and Mom, Aunt Lydia, and Grandma in the other. We got split up which only makes sense for us and ended up driving into the town of Madison, and then through the town of Madison and then continued on until Sierra was convinced she no longer knew where we were but knew we had gone too far. We turned around and headed back the way we had come and eventually found the house. Despite the cracked and pealing paint and broken windows the house is actually in good condition with little weather damage to the inside. We explored the house going through each room and admiring the architecture and the all wood and brick construction. The way the house was constructed each room had a fireplace in it, but to minimize the number of chimneys each chimney housed 2 fireplaces back to back with one fire place in each room. The land around the house was as interesting as the house itself as there were many smaller buildings of similar age ranging from stores to barns and other small houses, I probably could have spent many hours walking around the property and taking photos but the day was wearing on and it was getting time to get grandma back home. Our trip back home went much smother than our trip out to the house, but being our typical selves we had to do our share of wandering unknown road until we got back home.
