Fort Mcallister SP Georgia

I am here by myself because Jenny is hosting her annual high school girl friends reunion. 9 of her friends flew in from Texas for a 5 day visit. There was no room for me and actually there was not enough room for all of her quests. Our new nextdoor neighbor was kind enough to offer her house to keep everyone in a bed. I took the MP Jr. to this park which is alittle south of Savannah. The park protects an earthen fortress that was constructed during the civil war by the confederacy to protect sea lanes in and out of Savannah. There is a short movie in the visitors center that describes Fort Mcallister's roll in the civil war and a self guided walking tour through the fort. The tid bit of information I gleaned from my time doing the tour was that Sherman's March to the sea ended here. The fort held up through horrific naval bombardment but it couldn't withstand an attack from the land. I will be here for a few days until the estrogen levels drop in our house.
