Cool little stop. They were very friendly, and directed us to another place to visit -- the West Georgia Museum.

Mr. and Mrs. Jones will be glad to show you around and answer any questions. On top of that, they recommended a few other places to stop. Our kids loved it and even left with some free animal skins.
