Meanwhile back in Charleston

Howdee all,

Welcome to Charleston, SC

I am not a city gal, I don’t often go to Galleries, Museums or nightclubs..

Give me the wilds, the woods, the beach..that is where I am most at home.

Though, occasionally…I enjoy small bits and bites of city life.

Charleston_037Jeff and I went into Charleston on Sunday to walk around and take in the sights.

Charleston is a lovely small city..very walkable..

We happened on

Second Sunday~when King Street is closed to vehicle traffic..

I didn’t take any photos of the street full of people and vendors..

I did get this photo of these cute ladies in their Fancy hats..

This pineapple fountain has no lifeguard on duty but you can walk in it to cool off on a hot day.  Smile

There are hundreds of charming homes..

I wanted to go into each and every one.Charleston_090
