Beauvoir

Yesterday, I was able to visit Jefferson Davis' final home at Beauvoir in Biloxi, Mississippi. Admission was $9 for the general public, unless you had AAA, were 65 or were a member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans where you would save $1.50.

The Mississippi Division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans deserves a big thanks for keeping this place going and especially after all the damage it sustained after Hurricane Katrina in 2005. The place looks great.

The first time I saw the place was 1995, but I didn't go in. The second time was 2007 and it was still closed from Katrina.
