Allifunn - Eufaula really is a nice old town with beautiful houses. If you ever get a chance stop by the "Shorter Mansion" and tour it. It is right on 431 on the right (traveling from Atlanta). Been going to the lake there all my life although we did not have a home there, but hope to next year. We bought the perfect lot on the lake there last year and I hope, hope, hope, we get to build on it.

Johnrudy - I asked above but he doesn't respond....I don't think he likes me....no tar, not many postings, no pics and don't really debate on the board (like some from the RE forum - whew!), however, I actually probably admire him, his pics, his knowledge and his humor more than anyone on here . I have asked before before he won't tell. Could be his goobers really aren't safe in Dothan. Such a NUT :funn: JK
I must have missed that post. What number was it?

Eufaula has there annual "Pilgrimage" this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday with ample Antebellum homes on tour and hot chicks dressed up in hoop skirt dresses. There are many events, much more than just the hot chicks and houses. The Shorter Mansion, named after Governor Shorter who was governor of AL during the Civil War, will be on tour.

Shorter Mansion


The Shorter Mansion gets the most attention, (It was used in a recent movie about a girl from Alabama falls in love... I am terrible with movie stars and movie titles, but you have probably seen it.) but the Beaslely home, located a few lots to the north, is the real gem.

Foy-Beasley Home




Actually, for a brief period of time during the Civil War (which was not truly a "civil war") Gov Shorter moved the capital from Montgomery to AL so that the Yankees couldn't destroy it. Blah, blah, blah.

Imasunbum, where is your lot located? I am guessing you bought south of the City of Eufaula on the bluffs.

Sorry I missed ya'll last night - took medicine for aching back/shoulder and went to bed.

Oops I said above post but it was actually #5 on the Alabama thread in the lounge (where you be from :D )

My lot is south of the city but not the bluffs. It is one of the level lots in Turner III (Thomas Mill Creek - know it?) where they have sold off and developed the lots where the park used to be.

Thanks to SJ for posting that the Eufaula's Annual Pilgrimage event is this weekend. Since we didn't go to the beach I may try to rope my crew into going up to the art show and if I can't I may just go by myself! Thanks SJ.

Maybe I will see you there on my way back from Asheville. I plan on stopping for a little peek, myself, if I am not first turned off from all of the people.

Sorry, I somewhat answered the question on the thread in which you asked the original question.

I don't know Thomas Mill Creek by name, but that doesn't mean much. I cannot tell you the names of most famous people whom everyone knows. Where is TMC?
