While I believe the downtown park makes for an adventurist twist, we will mention the fact that there is a church on almost every corner.

If you continue thinking that southern hospitality is a thing of the past, I will be happy to remind you that it isn't.

Going to your local grocer, or farmers market makes for a familiar ride as everyone knows you by name. The older folks know you by face and then when you get closer, they will call out your name very loudly. Keep in mind, that southern charm my friend. Read Less
