A sparkling gem of natureโs best, Pee Dee Country has a unique combination of scenic parks and natural areas as well as a history spanning both Revolutionary and Civil War times, reflected in its wonderfully preserved historic homes, plantations and buildings.

Yummy
I haven’t been there in decades.
With Memorial Day coming up, thereโs perhaps no better time to visit some of the local military memorial sites in the Pee Deeโlike Bishopville Flag Park, Lee County Veterans Museum, and the Florence National Cemetery & Stockade.
๐ Bishopville Flag Park flies 11 flags: six of which honor our men and women in uniform, four which represent governments, and the final one a POW/MIA flag.
๐ The Lee County Veterans Museum features exhibits that trace conflicts from the American Revolutionary War to present conflicts. Every branch of service history is represented.
๐ And the Florence National Cemetery & Stockade is the burial place for Union soldiers who died while being held at the Florence Stockade. The first woman to be buried in a National Cemetery, Florena Budwin, is interred at the Florence National Cemetery, which contains the remains of veterans from all major US conflicts. Just south of the cemetery is the site of the stockade.
Learn more about these awe-inspiring sites at the links below. โฌ๏ธ
