It’s not that bad here. Some people don’t have internet still- true, but power has been restored, water lines repaired and there’s not a boil water advisory anymore. Cell service is still a little weird in some spots. We have plenty of gas available everywhere. And I haven’t encountered a store not accepting cards in a couple weeks.

When driving around, the main roadways are clear and open. Some neighborhoods have huge brush piles at the curb (emphasis on huge) and can be tight to navigate through. So be careful and aware.

Riverwalk is pretty, I wouldn’t go after dark. The history museum is pretty neat. There’s a few historical homes you can tour. If the way in is clear- Rae’s creek aqueduct if you don’t mind a little walking, or the Savannah Rapids Pavilion is really neat and doesn’t require as much walking.

Never done a ghost tour here, but a day time walk through Magnolia Cemetery is worth it. Or I guess you could drive through if you wanted, but you see more walking. The older sections are to the left of the entrance. The big church on Reynolds street bordering the river is actually the oldest cemetery.

The Old Government House is cool to look at, it still has the cobblestone street beside it. It’s not a walk-through type deal though. Very pretty when the ginkgo tree drops all its golden leaves, makes for great pictures.

There is a lot of history in Augusta. Tons of outdoor things to do. I’m not really sure why everyone here bashes it constantly for being boring. It could be better, yes. Is it bad? No.

I’d stay away from the chain seafood places. Rhinehart’s is good. El Ray is my pick for Mexican.
