"Dizzy" Gillespie was one of the greatest jazz trumpet players. This statue is located in his hometown of Cheraw, South Carolina. I have passed this for years and never had (or made) time to stop. I finally made time this last trip to SC.

While visiting my parents in SC, my dad and I went to the civil war reenactment at The Columns, just outside of Florence. I had never been to one of these before. It was very interesting to see (and hear). It was very loud there needless to say.
