A Visit to Charleston

My cousin Patsy and I in front of one of the many gorgeous structures in Charleston

Last week I spent a glorious few days in Charleston, South Carolina, now one of my favorite cities in the world. Thanks to my Aunt Kathy and Uncle Mark for hosting us (my lovely cousin, Patsy, joined me on the visit as well). It was an ideal getaway - amazing food, shopping, history, beautiful scenery and a day at the beach. And I got to check off one of my culinary bucket list items with a dinner at Husk - incredible!

The only thing I would recommend is perhaps save your visit for spring or fall. Late July in Charleston is not for the faint of heart. The humidity - lawd. My hair grew bigger by the hour. Still, it was an awesome experience. Enjoy a few of the pics I took in and around the Holy City. 

Have a wonderful weekend, friends!


The campus of the College of Charleston


Angel Oak on Johns Island - said to be at least 1,500 years old. It was a sight to behold.


An amazing meal at Husk, considered to be one of the best restaurants in the United States.


A day at Folly Beach with my Aunt Kathy - a short drive from Charleston

We love Charleston! We always say we're going to retire there someday. Husk is one of our favorites, as well. We're planning to try the one in Nashville later this month. Can't wait!

I'm glad that you had some wonderful days with your cousin. The name Charleston is so familiar from the old dance - charleston, but I had to check where the city is placed and now I know!

Hello, My name is Faith am from USA ..... and I am very happy for posting on this blog on how a great spell caster helped me bring back the love of my life. I know there are lots of women like me out there who have done so much just to have back their Husband, I am here to tell you all to search no further because the answer is right here. I sincerely believe if there are up to five spell casters like DOCTOR WTAHA this world would be a better place, I contacted him and shared my problems to him and he gave me the terms and conditions, which I obeyed, it only took 3 days for my husband to come back home begging for my forgiveness. To cut the long story short. I am now living happily with my husband. Thanks to Dr TWAHA . Contact him now on email: drlregbeyen10000@gmail.com . Or reach him on whats app +2349038518881 or call him . He can save your marriage or relationships too.
