Cedar Grove



Carole and I celebrated our 41st anniversary by staying at the Cedar Grove Mansion in Vicksburg. Cedar Grove was built about 1840 overlooking the Mississippi River. There is still a cannon ball in the wall from the shelling during the siege of Vicksburg as well as a hole in the floor where one passed through.

Thanks to our children's generosity, we stayed in a suite which had been the music room. If you are ever in Vicksburg, it is worth a visit. Tours are from ten to four each day.
