Great pictures. Burleigh Plantation in North Carolina is for sell too but the house there only has like 20 acres left with as I recall. Of course it's doesn't cost millions either. The house is great tho.

The plantations are cash strapped; just like they were after the civil war. These were & are some outstanding places I especially like the ones along the Mississippi River.

Beautiful homes...Wow! I don't think we have anything quite like these homes in Canada.

Extraordinary photos! I would love to go around and visit those old places. Such haunting melancholy & history. Thanks for sharing!
