Cheraw, SC

Cheraw, SC is the birthplace of Dizzy Gillespie. We stopped on the way home from Pinehurst to see the home site of where Gillespie was born. They have a really pretty park type place as pictured below. We also stopped to see the statue of him.

Check out the fence - I thought it was pretty with the muscial notes

Ha Ha! You know that's where I'm from, right? Too bad I couldn't have been there to give you the "big" tour!
