Atlanta, Georgia

We were in Atlanta for a few busy days.  There was hardly any time to do anything, but I did get to go to the Margret Mitchell house.  This is the house in which she had an apartment.  She wrote Gone with the Wind there.
 
 
On the left is a shot of the front of the house, and on the right is the back.
 On the left is the door from Tara from the movie, and the painting of Scarlett that hung in Rhett's bedroom in the movie as well.

Here is the newel post that inspired a portion of the movie/book.


 The mailboxes outside of Mitchell's apartment door.  Sadly, no photos allowed inside but I'll tell you this, it was tiny!!!  I've had bigger hotel rooms!  My tour group had an excellent guide, and Margret Mitchell was a fascinating woman!
