I’m going to see it next week...I saw it from the air once (it’s visible coming into Atlanta from certain points) but I wanted to see it as it was meant to be seen, before they blow it up.
I’m not from the South originally and have no special regional loyalty to these figures, but they were important figures in American history (because both sides of the Civil War were part of American history) and it just infuriates me that people want to destroy this beautiful monument.
The park is private property and they have a campground, cottages and a lodge for visitors...I’m planning on driving there (about a five hour drive from where I live) and staying overnight. I’m really looking forward to it.
Ominous?
