Have you ever been on a road trip and you see a sign for a place that you spontaneously want to check-out? Seems like a neat idea, right? After all, the sign says that such and such is "just ahead"? Won't take much time at all, right? Umm, wrong! Ends up that gas station, McDonalds or other place of interest that was "just ahead", turns out to be MILES upon MILES ahead.
That's exactly what happened to me yesterday. I was out for just a casual drive in an area I had never been before and I happened upon a sign for a place called "Historic Brattonsville".
Now, I happen to love history. No, i'm not a history buff, but I do appreciate the fact that it's a good idea to educate oneself on this country's history when ever possible. Not to mention, historic landmarks make for great photography.
So, after about 15 minutes, I finally make it to this place that was "just ahead".
You know, it was worth the trip. If you ever find yourself in the Rock Hill, SC area, make a pit stop. Just make sure you have a full tank of gas. :)

Just set up a flickr account for Historic Brattonsville and were thrilled to see you've already posted these great photos there! Glad the drive was worth it.
