Downtown Greenville is very nice. The ballpark is a great place to see a game. The museum, which is right across the street from the ballpark is in the house that Joe Jackson used to live in, although I seem to recall that it was relocated to where it presently is about the same time they opened the ballpark. It will take you about an hour or hour and a half to get through.

The site says they moved the house about three miles. I asked about seeing the stadium, but they are closed on the weekends(is what I was told). I love the Fenway Park look to the park.

Here are a few photos from a visit. The museum was closed that day, so I didn't get inside. I've also been through the Brandon Mills neighborhood, seeing the old ball field.

Thanks everyone. I'll be making the trip and I'm looking forward to it. Going to make a day of it in town.

If you are interested in visiting Joe's grave, it is on the other side of town, but easy to find off one of the main drags.

I am interested in going to the gravesite, not sure the people I'll be with will go.
