Your photos are great! <br /><br />Gone With the Wind is one of my all time favorite books. I first read it when I was on summer vacation with my best friend Diane and her family - we drove up from Miami to their log cabin 'The Timbers' in North Florida.<br /><br />When I couldn't put the book down (and was reading by flashlight in the upper loft bedroom, Diane's mother Mrs. Perkins called out, 'alright Miss Scarlett - time to put that book down and get some sleep!') For the rest of that summer, my nickname was Scarlett! I was about 13 years old and Gone With the Wind is still one of my favorites...<br /><br />I must visit that museum - thanks for the review, Joanie<br /><br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2167015610970367792.post-61207875185457557482014-09-02T22:49:57.594-04:002014-09-02T22:49:57.594-04:00Thanks for sharing your visit with us.

It's located in the quaint historic town of Jefferson. As many times as I've visited Jefferson for their Candlelight Christmas Home Tour or the Spring Pilgrimage, I've never visited the museum. I'll have to do that next time I go. Also, in Fort Worth, the Texas Civil War Museum has on display right now the green velvet hat with gold fringe that Scarlett wore in the movie.The Victorian Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08771406484767173643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2167015610970367792.post-51091426322511231452014-09-02T11:58:42.586-04:002014-09-02T11:58:42.586-04:00I've never been to the GWTW museum.

I know right where it is, having grown up only a few miles from there. (Phyllis, do come visit Marietta, I could meet you on that trip!) When I started reading this post, I thought "It is a shame that I grew up there and never went to this museum" but then I read that it opened in 2003, by which time I was no longer living in Marietta. That makes me feel a little better! I do love the book, I have read it countless times. Glad you and Aunt Jane enjoyed the museum.

It's on my list of places to visit, and sooner rather than later. I just received an e-mail a couple of days ago about a new book that's just been released "Saving Tara Project" and I going to order a copy. I don't know how long the restoration project will take, but I'd sure like to see it when it's done. Maybe Dean and Deluca will bring their Scarlett O'Hara tea back for the 75th Anniversary. Should all of us tea lovers and Gone With the Wind book and movie lovers write them and ask them to do so???relevanttealeafhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07147226538911605568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2167015610970367792.post-84154461601909858662014-09-02T07:43:51.298-04:002014-09-02T07:43:51.298-04:00Joy B and I need to do a road trip to Marietta and...Joy B and I need to do a road trip to Marietta and go visit here. It is on my bucket list, being a fan of both MM and GWTW.
