Nice pictures Socaguy... I think those are the first I've seen of Augusta.

Thanks!  I had some images of Downtown and Oldtowne up here over the spring/summer but my website has been down for a while.  Guess ill have to take another day this spring to get some more images.

That's a nea looking neighborhood

After all the neighborhoods I have visited as well as lived in, Summerville is still my favorite.  It’s fabulous-still dreaming of living there one day . . .

Augusta oftentimes doesn’t give itself enough credit, and The Hill is just a jewel.

[socaguy]

True.  I used to live on the Hill when i was younger and walked to St. Marys for school everyday.  Of course back then I didnt really realize what a beautiful neighborhood it was, but looking back i wish i could live there again someday.

Just thought I'd add this:  on St. Patrick's Day, a new Irish pub opened up in the old Summerville Grill place.   It's called Sheehan's Irish Pub.  Most people pronounce it like, "Shin's."  Now I have 2 bars plus the Knights of Columbus within walking distance!

Here are a few more pics of Summerville.  This area,  around Walton way at the top of "the hill" forms Augustas 3rd, "mini" skyline.  Summerville is about 3 miles west of Downtown Augusta.

I know this post is years old, but I LOVE THESE PICS!!  I'm from Augusta, and grew up going to all of these places.  I went to St. Mary on the Hill, too, and Aquinas as well.  GREAT pics for when I'm feeling homesick!!

[socaguy]

Hey i went to Aquinas too...what year did you graduate?

[Pillsbury]

Wow, does everyone in this town go to St. Mary's?
