Below: The two
RV Gypsies could not get to the other side of the water tower to see
what is said. |
 |
Below: At first, the two RV
Gypsies were not going to get out of their car, so Karen Duquette took
a picture of the Chester County Courthouse through the car window. But
then Karen decided that she wanted to walk around a bit and she took
an even better photo of the courthouse, although the first photo does
have a monument off to the side that is not shown in the second photo.

Courthouse sign and a Chester Hometown Hero flag (one of several) just
across the street from the courthouse. |

Below: Next to the Chester
County Courthouse, the two RV Gypsies saw The Department of Veterans
Affairs Building (which was closed at the time), and so Karen Duquette
photographed the Memorial. |

Leaving this area, the two
RV Gypsies came to Sweet
Caroline's Restaurant and stopped to eat. To learn about the restaurant,

IF you are NOT interested in the restaurant, continue scrolling down
for a few photos in Blacksburg, SC. |

Below: The two RV Gypsies
passed a car with a South Carolina plate. It was noticeable for two
reasons -
(1) The roof was hard-sided with a convertible top.
(2) It must be a foreign car because the steering wheel is on the right-hand
side of the car. |
 |
Below: As the two RV Gypsies
drove through Gaffney South Carolina, Karen Duquette noticed that one
of the city's flags was hung upside-down. |
 |
Below: Karen Duquette noticed
a nice mural by the corners of North Shelby and Eash Church Street in
Blacksburg, SC so she got out of the car to take a photo. The sidewalk
was very narrow and a police car was parked right there, so Karen could
not get a photo facing "straight on". So she had to settle
for the best photo she could get from an angle. There was not any traffic,
but even if Karen had stood in the street to take the photo (which she
did not), the police car would have blocked part of the photograph. |
 |
Below: Eagle-eyed Lee Duquette
noticed that the building in the above mural is the same building that
was right across the street, (which currently has an addition off to
the side). It is the Police Department building for the city of Blacksburg,
located at 101 S. Shelby Street. |
 |
Below: Continuing on, the
two RV Gypsies noticed a big, empty, Castle, so Karen Duquette took
a photo. A beheaded statue stood to the side of the doorway, partially
hidden behind the tree.
They are not exactly sure where the Castle is located, but it was
just before they got on the highway I-85 near North Carolina and South
Carolina border. |
