RE: Would You Ever Want to Go on a Tour of a Plantation???

Was amazing, now that I recall, that a class of practically all Black kids went on the tour and paid no attention to what was really going on. We were all just glad to be out of the school and with friends to act a fool.

Mainly what I took from it though was an affinity for the architecture and the Spanish moss that hung from the magnolia trees.

As an adult, I'd visit only to take my kids through and I'd only want them to see the slave quarters if they are still erect.
