Thanks folks! I'll try to get the full city tours up in a timely manner.

I look forward to the individual city tours. Great stuff Tt, thanks.  |
Spartanburg was a bit underwhelming, but I ate at a very good Thai place on Main St, so they've got that. There is a nice residential area near downtown called Converse Heights that I wanted to see, but it got dark. I understand Greenville has a much better downtown, but I headed up towards the mountains instead.
Post those Macon photos! It's a cool city.

And while some cities have arches or spaceneedles, Winston-Salem has a 12 foot tall coffee pot from 1858 as its city symbol. It's over there as well.

I saw the coffee pot while getting on the interstate from downtown (may have taken a roundabout way by accident). I wish I could have seen more W-S neighborhoods, but the weather was a bit cruddy for walking around. I'll be sure to get out of downtown next time I'm in town.
