Whoopsy,
how'd we end up in South Carolina? |
I've
always wanted to go to North Augusta, South Carolina. |
US
1 continues on its trek to Canada while US 25 turns off to go to North
Augusta, South Carolina. |
And
to think, all of these US routes went down on that little road. I wish
I could go on that little road. |
Don't
ask me how, but I managed to get onto the 5th Street Bridge, which is not
US 1/ US 25/ US 78/ US 278. |
That's
about as good as it gets for Augusta's skyline. |
Welcome
to Augusta, population 193,101. |
This
is Augusta's downtown, before I showed Amanda J how to zoom in all the way
to take road snaps. |
Cool
railroad bridge that parallels the 5th Street Bridge, looking northeast into
South Carolina. |
That's
me standing at the beginning of the riverwalk. |
I'd
love to live in any of those houses in North Augusta, South Carolina. |
Ain't
the Riverwalk pretty?! |
That's
the Savannah River, by the way. |
There's
a pavilion here, too. |
It's
sooo nice, I recommend walking here sometime. |
Back
to downtown Augusta. |
These
buildings almost remind me of Cairo, IL, if it were you know, alive and
kicking. |
Augusta
even has one of these clocks, just like Cairo! Look for yourself
here. At
least this clock displays the right time. |
No
one better to name a street after than James Brown, right? |
I
think this pic speaks for itself. |
Tall
building obscured by trees. |
This
one can speak for itself as well. |
Confederate
soldiers' memorial. Wow, now I remember we're still in the south. |
The
memorial looks old, but I wonder exactly how old it is. If I remember
to look it up one of these days, I'll let you know its age. |
This
city is great, let me just tell you. |
Walking
along Broad Street. |
The
wide median houses parking, fountains, and sidewalks. It is a pretty
"broad street", after all. |
More
downtown Augusta. |
Sometimes
I just love my photography. This is the Augusta Magazine building, if
you can't read. |
An
old-style auto service station. |
A
church at the riverwalk's parking lot. |
Back
to that old railroad bridge. |
A
better shot of the bridge and the entrance to the riverwalk. |
Alright,
we're done with Augusta, so we hop onto I-520. |
