Resort Area

Famous quotes containing the words resort and/or area:

    The last resort of kings, the cannonball. The last resort of the people, the paving stone.
    Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    During the Civil War the area became a refuge for service- dodging Texans, and gangs of bushwhackers, as they were called, hid in its fastnesses. Conscript details of the Confederate Army hunted the fugitives and occasional skirmishes resulted.
