Thursday Jan 26 2017 Augusta Museum and Riverwalk

Augusta Georgia

Home of the Masters Golf Tournament. We have hoped to tour the club house and get a peek of the golf course, but no such luck. The only time you get to see the course is during the tournament and you must have a ticket. Tickets are not available unless you know someone. Members are only allowed to play 3 or 4 times a year. The course is completely closed during the hot weather and the cold weather. This is a tournament course.



This is a wonderful museum, two floors with all different sections: history of the city, civil war, slavery, local industry, local heroes, business history from the area, and golf. Easy to spend half a day or more here.

Augusta is located along the bank of the Savannah River which over the years has flooded and wiped out parts of the city. They built a levee and now they have built a walk on the top of it.
This is a view of the walk at the rivers edge. Lots of places to sit and relax as well as areas for kids to play: play structures etc
This is the concert set up . The seats are on the bank of the levee.
