Canna Lily

This Canna if is in my daughter's yard.  I think I need to plant some of these!

Cypress Swamp

I love everything about living in the Lowcountry but I think the cypress swamps are my favorite!

Halfway Creek Chapel

We were out at Francis Marion National Forest and just stumbled upon this old, chapel/church.  Halfway Creek Road is so sparsely traveled that when we passed this I yelled for Kirby to stop, which he did, and then he proceeded to back up all the way it took for him to react and stop! There was no one around to care if he did this!

  I can't find any history on this church or the connected cemetery but I did learn that there is a Halfway Creek Church in Wisconsin with a cemetery.

Surf Fishing

This young man is certainly finding a way to enjoy the storm.

Watching the Storm

Tropical storm Beryl passing by. 

Do Not Feed the Alligators!

Being from the west coast, I never tire of things Alligator!  This is at Magnolia Cemetery.

Early Morning Light

I pass this view every morning on my way to work.  Am I lucky or what?

Charleston Farmer's Market

Herbs, coffee, meat, veggies, bread, dog leashes, dresses, breakfast, flowers, pottery and skincare products - just a short list of some of the items you will find at the Charleston Farmer's Market.

Beach Scene

I just couldn't resist this 'real life in action' photo.  And, though not a fan of tattoos, her little star is quite nice.

Drinking Fountain

Do you remember when we used drinking fountains all the time?  It really sounds disgusting to me now!  Drinking where hoards of other have.  Well, the birds don't seem to mind at all.  I am not a fan of pigeons but this one was so clever that I rather liked him.  There was just a bead of water escaping and he found it!

Folly Beach in the Summer

Typical of beach communities, Folly Beach becomes very crowded in the summer but is quiet in the winter.  This day was cloudy and cool for this time of year but the crowds were still there.

Steps and Leaded Glass

The Beach

This is early morning at the Isle of Palm Beach. 

Ladies Room

Believe it or not, this is the Ladies Room at Magnolia Plantation!

Can't See the Forest

I have to wonder how the early settlers even survived in the Lowcountry.  Even trees seem to grow like weeds here and the forests are so thick you can't walk through them.
