Visit to Bennet Place

We stopped by Bennet place, a little farm in Durham, North Carolina. It was the site of the largest troop surrender in the civil war. Sherman and Johnston met there 3 times to hammer out the details of the Carolina's surrender to the Union. It spared North Carolina from the fate that Sherman delivered to Georgia and South Carolina. No pictures, we forgot the camera. Here's one from the web.
