I will be in Macon for a wedding in December.  I bought my tickets for the Big  House but have a question for the folks who know the lay of the land. The wedding is at 5pm on Saturday If I hit want to hit H&H for breakfast and visit Rosehill along with the Big House, how much time should I allow to do the tour justice? Any other advice is appreciated.

 

Thanks

The cemetery is big. Duane, Berry, Gregg and Butch are together. Elizabeth Reed Napier and Little Martha are above the brothers' graves if I remember correctly. Supposedly Dickey was sitting on the Liz Reed grave, it's a huge flat headstone about the size of a bed, when he wrote In Memory of Elizabeth Reed. But you need to give yourself a minimum of three hours at the big house if you want to carefully look at all of the artifacts.

@tg  Next time you're in Los Angeles don't forget to visit Jerome Howard's grave. It made me smile!!
