Fantastic work!  I haven't been to the plantation in a few years but from the shots I can see that it is still the gem it once was.  A very concise synopsis on the history, again great work!

It's nice to read about something a bit more positive and historical.

Jacksonville: home to the biggest park system in the nation (?) and the south's nicest slavemaster.
I love this zany town.
