There is a lot to do and see around here...different places, different
faces...history has dealt Franklin County a unique hand...For instance,
we have a mountain...a small mountain...but a mountain nonetheless...on
top of our mountain is one of the finest universities in the nation...the
world, for that matter...folks in these parts usually call it Sewanee,
but officially it's the University of the South.
