Chippewa Square
is one of the most known squares in all of Savannah. Forrest Gump made
this square famous with its bench scenes, where he waited for the bus.
They actually used at least four fiberglass benches while filming the
scenes on this square. One of which was donated to the city and was
moved into the Savannah History Museum. The Segway tour guide told the
two RV Gypsies that they had one of the benches in the Chippewa Square,
but it was stolen. |

This square dated
back to The Battle of Chippewa, an important skirmish in the War of
1812. The monument below commemorates the 250th anniversary of the Founding
of the Colony of Georgia. |

RV Gypsies stopped at Georgia Peach Cookies in Savannah because they
saw the sign out front for free samples. But all of the cookies were
hard, and the two RV Gypsies like soft cookies, so they did not purchase
any. |
