Chattanooga on the Tennessee river was one of the three crucial battle grounds in the American Civil War. Most Americans know their civil war history, those who don’t can learn it all at Point Park overlooking Chattanooga.

We came to see the new Chattanooga and because Glen Miller (and his band) seemed to think it was worth the visit. The architecture, history and views were more than we expected. It’s easy to lose a day or two in Chattanooga.

The South initially held the high ground.

Thanks Glen.
