This beautiful photograph brilliantly shows the harbor at a seaside town. Can you figure but where it is? Send your answers to elliott@brack.net and be sure to include the town where you live.
The photo in the last edition of a building with a Santa hat had four people who recognized the city, that of Charleston, S.C. Howard Williams of Snellville nailed it better than anyone, also identifying the location: He wrote: “The 266-year old home is located in Charleston, S.C. at the corner of Meeting and Tradd streets. The owner covered the cone-shaped cupola part of the roof with a Santa hat.”
John Hager of Lilburn said: “Thought it looked like the Juliette Low house in Savannah, but it’s not. Still looks like Savannah or Charleston. Only places I can think of with palm trees and high enough land values back then to cause one of wealth to build a house like that right up to the sidewalk.” David Earl Tyre of Jesup said:: “I am pretty sure the photo was of a building in Charleston, S.C., but can’t bring the street names up.” Susan McBrayer of Sugar Hill wrote: “Knee-jerk reaction to photo Charleston. But I have no idea where it is in Charleston. Such a playful decoration.” Congratulations to all these eagle-eyed readers.
LAGNIAPPERecent rain creates overflowing waters in many areas
Over the Christmas holidays, Gwinnett and all of Atlanta was awash with rainfall, measuring over seven inches in one Gwinnett spot. Russell Mullennix of McDonough sent to his brother in Peachtree Corners, Scott, this image of a recent Mystery Photo, that of Starr’s Mill. But instead of the relatively quiet flow, now the water was pouring mightily over the dam.
