This past weekend Mallory and I went with Meg and Little Hope to spend a couple of days in Atlanta, where we just had the best time. Our first stop for the day was at Oakland Cemetery, where we took the Margaret Mitchell tour, where we saw her and her husband John Marsh’s burial sites, as well as those of family members, and people who the characters in Gone With the Wind seemed to be based on – and heard lots of cool stories. I loved seeing this list of other tours that are coming up. It made me with we lived closer.
After we finished the tour we went on our own and found the tombstones of some of the other famous people who were buried there. When we found Bobby Jones’ grave, we were so sorry that we hadn’t known that we were supposed to bring a golf ball to leave to honor him. Next time.
