With this issue of Augusta magazine Where the Road Takes Us heads to Fitzgerald, Ga., an old colony for Union veterans deep in the heart of the Confederacy.
The idea is simple: two down-to-earth guys hitting the road to explore some remote Southern locations in Georgia and South Carolina. Videographer Mark Albertin and narrator Jim Garvey, the tour guides, are regenerating lore, fascination and public interest in the South through the storytelling of small-town locals.
Where the Road Takes Us includes a YouTube video and a written feature in the magazine. Come along for the ride and experience the hidden South coming to life through history, personalities and an occasional pint of Appalachian firewater. It’s all about following the dirt road to the next destination; Fitzgerald, Ga.
