What a great tour. And no, not too long by any means. Good job.

great pictures and narrative Lori, thanks for doing that for us and taking us along.
It would be a neat place to visit if I were to ever get that direction. Some day, it
will happen.

Lori,
Enjoyed the "tour" A plant that smells like chocolate - where can I get one? I'm planning to leave here the 11th and still planning to stop in Savannah for at least a week in March. Really want to see you again - maybe you can show me some stuff.

I know there is a Mint plant that smells and tastes like Chocolate Mint. Thanks for the tour Lori, you don't have to leave the country to see great places.

If it smells like chocolate, it better be edible! Cause I would be so temped to eat it!

Very interesting! My mom would have loved to see places like that. I swear she was a southern belle in a past life!
