    You can tell what their priorities are because the History section of their webpage had nothing in it but the age of the trees on the property.

      Yes - the oak trees were a big deal. Touring the gardens was part of the house tour.

      They really try to make one of the daughters of the house a sort of princess/Southern Belle. The woman at the gift shop really encouraged me to pick this up, when we started talking about Gone With the Wind.

      I’ll have to flip through the ephemera collection to find some of the other “fun” things. Also got a coffee table book somewhere.
