Oh history, how I love thee. Especially in my own back yard! I was very excited to finally get to visit Octagon Hall, a Confederate Museum. It was all I had hoped and more. The feeling I got just by looking at the house when we were turning into the drive was magnificent. An octagon shaped house built in 1859! WOW! Not to mention this past April marked the 200th anniversary of the beginning of the Civil War and I was actually getting to see real artifacts from the era. I stood in a room where a wounded Confederate soldier passed away from his injuries. Words cannot begin to describe the feeling I had. I took a few pics and so did my husband but pictures cannot do this place justice. See for yourself.  Octagon Hall is fabulous. P.S. We didn't not have any paranormal experiences. ;)
