Peach Water Tower, Gaffney, South Carolina

I am FINALLY sending you some of the pictures of the more ... interesting ... things in South Carolina. We seem to have a thing for weird water towers around here.

The peach is the pride of Gaffney - SC grows more peaches than Georgia, or did when this thing was built, so in an effort to convince the national Peach Association to locate itself in SC they built a giant peach water tower.

Unfortunately, from certain angles it appears to be a giant butt mooning the city of Gaffney.

Sombrero Water Tower from South of The Border, South Carolina

The sombrero is from South of the Border. Apparently some people think it's a romantic destination - there's a 24-hour wedding chapel there. You can also camp, eat at one of the restaurants, or buy an incredible amount of cheap crap.
