  Happy Howl-o-ween! What better time to share some spooky adventures, than on Halloween?!  In our travels, we have visited places that are said to be haunted.  I thought I would share a few … Colonial Park Cemetery – Savannah, GA Savannah, one of the oldest cities in Georgia, is full of haunted stories and ghosts of the past!  The Colonial Park Cemetery in the middle of historic downtown, is full of history and spooky stories!  This cemetery is the final resting place for many of Savannahs residents.  Established in 1750, it filled to capacity (despite being expanded several times) when Yellow Fever swept through the city in 1820.  By…
