Sweet Carolina.......

I recently took a weekend mini vacation to Charleston, South Carolina. My sis and her husband winter there in their fifth wheel. They invited me down and I took them up on their invitation. Though it was a quick trip....I was able to see the ocean, downtown historic Charleston, and a 1400 year old live oak tree called "Angel Oak". I have included some highlights of my trip. I loved their fifth wheel....it was spacious and the bed was so comfy. The campground provided some (clear throat) adventures and surprises.....

The first surprise was the camp ground's most famous resident, "Charley the Alligator

Angel Oak is so huge that just one of its many outward stretched limbs doesn't appear large until someone stands by one (sister, Bonnie)

Charleston is beautiful with its gardens and historic buildings.

Arches, gas street lamps, and cobblestone streets adorn the city.

My visit to the ocean on the first day was my chance to get some prayer and solitude. The sounds, sights, and smells of the ocean open the doors to my soul.

Life on the beach is amazingly beautiful.

My sister and I .....just love her to pieces!

This was taken after about 10 pictures....my silly sister started making faces and it snowballed into the funniest picture session.

My nephew AJ, moved to Charleston and is a policeman downtown Charleston. I enjoyed his insights as we walked around.
