I should note that while in Mobile, we did all sorts of Civil War sight-seeing, all having to do with Confederate Admiral Raphael Semmes, who commanded the famous raider CSS Alabama.
We went to his grave, saw his house, drove through a town named for him, saw his statue and found out about a hotel named for him.
He came to Mobile after the war and lived his final years.

RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
