Vacation again....

[wyliec]

End of May, visiting Savannah Georgia, and Charleston S.C., not on Spyder. Any suggestions for points of interest. The trip is being broken up with a wedding (not mine) in Greensboro Georgia.

If you're interested in civil war history, the confederate submarine H.L. Hunley is being preserved in Charleston. Human (hand crank) powered. The first submarine to sink an enemy warship. Sat on the bottom of Charleston harbor from Feb 1864 until 2000.

The first ship I was stationed on was the USS Hunley, out of Charleston.

Good idea. I'm a member of AAA, and forgot about the guide books.

I just googled it. That may be a bit out of the way.

Well, technically, no. The Hunley was never commissioned into the Confederate Navy, and thus was officially a privateer. The official name was The H.L. Hunley (privately owned, but operated by the CS Navy) Yeah, I know, my geek is showing thru... :sour:

Good link to the history though!
