We took a weekend trip to Washington, GA, which is about half way between Athens, Georgia that is, and Augusta.
Washington is like taking a step back in time. The big attractions are the antebellum homes, which are open a few times per year. We did not get to go in any. I think that there is one around Christmas and during the month of April. There is the Callaway Plantation on the outside of town. A Google search with give much information about this. The pictures are of buildings on the plantation.
Before going to the plantation, we ate lunch at an unusual restaurant called Cade's Home Cooking. A limited Southern, Home-Cooked buffet menu but all I can say is that everything we had was delicious. The Peach Cobbler was the best!
Zero ambiance, but a little treasure. Mrs. Cade does all the cooking and her husband works the dining room and is a delightful man.
Here are a few pictures from the plantation. More pictures will be posted of the town soon.
The pictures in order are the Main House, the Ironing Shed (rear), the Smoke House, the front of the Ironing Shed, the School, Linda in the school, a Corn Crib, and 3 pictures of the Work Shed.










I have the feeling you guys will be back visiting this quaint place again when you can get into the houses... they're lovely!
