We jumped in the car and headed south. Charlotte, Charleston, Savanah, and... Ridgeland.

How cool. Nice pic too!
I didn't order anything, but drums that I already had on order were in production while I was there. (Which is pretty cool!)

I'd love to do a trip around to all the drum stores/shops/places I could in the states.
When my wife and I travel we usually find some drum related stop along the way.
When we visited NYC we went to Steve Maxwell's shop, in Nashville we stopped at Fork's, on a trip to Chicago we stopped at Swee****er. This past trip it was a tour of the Gretsch factory.
I have a very cool wife.
