Savannah GA - Forsyth Park

Tuesday we drove into Savannah, about 15 minutes from the park.  Our first stop was Forsyth Park which is  like Central Park in NYC in that the founder dedicated land for a public park in the middle of a bustling city a hundred plus years ago.  The large trees made for great shade while walking and looking at the beautiful fountain in the center of the park and the statutes and monuments dedicated to various military members from the Revolutionary, Civil, and World Wars.
