One last look at Montgomery

Before leaving Alabama, we spent one last afternoon sightseeing in historic Montgomery.

A few highlights:
The first White House of the Confederacy:
Alabama's capitol: Veteran's memorial at the capitol:
Court Square:
A fountain stands where the slave trade once did, with the capitol in the background. This square was also along the route of numerous marches in the Civil War and later, the Civil Rights movement.

The Greyhound Station where the Freedom Ride came to an end:
Beautiful homes in the Cloverdale area:
Scott & Zelda Fitzgerald's home:

And one last look at the city while driving away at 5:00 a.m.:
We had a wonderful time and made such great friends during our stay in Alabama. I don't think we'll ever think of the song "Sweet Home Alabama" the same way ever again!
