Today we visited Kingsley Plantation, located off Ft. George Island, this historic landmark was once a running plantation that dates back to 1813. After driving down miles of dirt roads, we discovered a place of beauty and history. As we walked the grounds, I couldn't help but feel the people that once filled these quarters...it was breathtaking to say the least. Slavery is something that is not to be forgotten. It is part of our history. It's part of who we all are today.
