Have you ever toured Savannah’s famous Bonaventure Cemetery? Quintessentially Southern Gothic, it has captured the imaginations of writers, poets, naturalists, photographers and filmmakers for more than 150 years. Part natural cathedral, part sculptural garden, Bonaventure transcends time. Open daily for tours from 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. It is free to tour.
Throwback Thursday: A hundred years before Forrest Gump sat on a bench here, kids play in Chippewa Square. I love the mischievous look on the face of the boy in the back of the little carriage. Photo from the book “Savannah Then and Now” by Polly Cooper and Ted Eldridge. — with Connor Ryan.
