My Grandmother new the "Waving Lady" and told the story often. She was young lady that was allegedly left by a sailor perhaps the sailor was kidnapped and transported to the river via the tunnel at the Pirate House? My Grandmother was also the first Lady Auxiliary President of the VFW in Georgia and was honored to decorate the hall for a gathering in Georgia from all over the United States. She wanted to insure Georgia was represented and chose "The Waving Lady" as a center piece for all the tables my daughter help her gather the pieces needed (dolls, dogs, and bronze paint) to insure the likeness of the monument. I still have one to this day. My daughter loved doing this so much and when she passed we as a family decided to hold a memorial at the monument of "The Waving Lady" and dropped flowers in the river. I hope all will recall this story as you visit "The Waving Girl" (My Grandmother always call her "The Waving Lady").
Thank you for a well written article. As I understand the new voting machines we will be able to print out a copy of what we voted. Included in the printed copy will be a bar code (we want we able to read the bar code) and must turn the paper ballot in even if errors exist. We are then allowed to correct the error by voting again. This bothers me, why do they keep the ballot that was in error?
OK Butter Cup even if you are not a racist why would you want a monument for second place? Fold the dumb flag up and put it in museum do the same with racist monuments!
