I'll nominate the Gaffney Peach. The town water tower looks like, well, a giant peach.

There's also a covered bridge in Greenville County (or is it Spartanburg?) which is a pretty rare thing in the south.

I forget when it is you are coming, but there is a series of books 'off the beaten path' that always has some fun and different things to check out. They seem to have one for every state I've ever looked up.

If you come mid-May, the Greek Festival is pretty cool! Greenville Greek Festival

I have the book about Weird Things to see in SC. I will round it up and see what we can put you on.

A few unusual/unique and/or weird things in Greenville include:

• The Liberty Bridge (http://www.wursterinc.com/dynamicdata/LibertyBridge.aspx - broken link)
• "Broad Margin" - Greenville's own custom designed house by Frank Lloyd Wright
• Cafe and Then Some
• "Shoeless" Joe Jackson Museum & Baseball Library
• "Pretty Place" Chapel

Forgot to add Mice on Main to the short list above.

oh cool because I guess you could say I like to tour the unusual verses tourist traps
Makes it more adventurous.

In Savannah I took a tour of the city in the back of a Hertz

[Rapunzll]

I'm hoping you meant hearse, because a Hertz doesn't sound all that unusual!

I don't wish this on anyone, but you will see plenty of weird and unusual things and people at the emergency room at Greenville Memorial. That place breeds the weird.
