imzadi,
I looked up Jackson, SC on the Google map - I had first assumed it was where Ft. Jackson is. When I saw Jackson is near Augusta, I thought of fig trees in Augusta - when I was little (1944) we used to climb the neighbor's fence and then climb up into her fig tree to eat the figs! (at least until she came running out of her kitchen yelling at us). I have never seen a large fig TREE since although someone told me that that in Vicksburg, MS (on the banks of the Miss. River) there were some huge ones.

Figs are my favorite - I have 6 or 8 different kinds and some are doing ok this year. I just ate the one in the picture - delicious!
