Blooming Hydrangeas!
I think all the blooming, scented plants in Charleston, SC are making a super comeback after the not-typical-for-us winter of ice and snow. It was a crazy (but fun) week, but many plants really took a beating. We were fortunate to only lose one gardenia!
Last year we planted a lot of liriope (aka Monkey Grass), hydrangeas, and Continue reading “Blooming Hydrangeas!”
Beach Sculpture by Mother Nature – Botany Bay (Edisto, SC)
Botany Bay – located in Edisto, SC is one of the most beautiful, unspoiled beaches that I’ve ever seen. From the moment you enter the Botany Bay Plantation Wildlife Management area you will be stunned by the beauty. Continue reading “Beach Sculpture by Mother Nature – Botany Bay (Edisto, SC)”
Backyard Palms
These wild palms pop up all on their own. They’re quite amazing – they grow quickly and provide wonderful shade not to mention the palm fronds are just beautiful – I love taking photos of them, especially with light shining from behind – look how it lights up the palm. Continue reading “Backyard Palms”
Our Sanctuary!
Today is Memorial Day, and many of us are outside enjoying our backyards – I wish I could pass along the scent of everything blooming right now. The lagustrums (against the back fence and bordering our yard), the Confederate Jasmine (to the left of the buoys) – Ohmygosh! Continue reading “Our Sanctuary!”
Pier at Brittlebank Park – Charleston, SC
Yesterday I wrote about visiting places right near you… well this is another shot of Brittlebank Park, located very close to us. I was surprised by just how nice it is! The gorgeous dock extends into the Ashley River. The covered area is a dream, off to the right is a floating dock. That funny building you see on the horizon – that’s the “round Holiday Inn” a landmark for many. Continue reading “Pier at Brittlebank Park – Charleston, SC”
Lowcountry Beauty Right Under Our Nose!
You know how it is… there are so many wonderful things to do right where you live, but have you done them? Many people have not, including us… So one day, after stopping at Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) we popped over to Brittlebank Park (literally across the street from DMV) situated on the water with stunning views to check it out – There is a wonderful dock with a covered pier for fishing – although situated where it can certainly get congested (especially during events), we went at a quiet time, one man fishing, and it was beautiful outside!

Looking up!
Miraculous, right? It’s amazing how flowers can be so vibrant, and look at that velvety texture – stunning! I’m not sure what kind of flower this is (do you know?)…
A Canopy of Oak Tree Limbs
The Charleston, SC live oak trees are something to be treasured. In this photo, I shot upward. The limbs form a canopy over the road which is magnificent, especially on hot days! There is enough shade to walk laps (one time around the block is 0.8 miles) and for the most part stay out of direct sun. It also helps if you get caught in the rain, the trees shield you from regular rain – but not hard rain.
Lowcountry Marsh
I snapped this photo while walking – it’s so hard for me to not stop and take photos. I’m not sure my other half appreciates this trait in me, but it can’t be helped… So I snap away, then try to catch up only to stop again.
The marsh here in the Lowcountry is dramatic and beautiful. Always changing – low tide, high tide, grasses change, birds, sky and oh those trees! Continue reading “Lowcountry Marsh”
Shaggin’ on the Cooper!
The Charleston, SC area has so much to offer. Something is always going on. Always. There is always an event of some sort. Fred and I went to the Mount Pleasant Pier (located in Mount Pleasant, SC) – it’s a park on a pier underneath the Ravenel Bridge. It is so nicely done, plenty of seating, a gift shop, areas to fish, clean fish, watch people, walk, visit, read a book, and… dance! Continue reading “Shaggin’ on the Cooper!”
Cinco de Mayo & Taco Boy!
We recently popped into Taco Boy for a weekend lunch. This place is full of atmosphere. I love how the windows behind the bar roll up making the inside and outside one fabulous space! Continue reading “Cinco de Mayo & Taco Boy!”
Where to Next?
I saw this the other day and had to grab my phone and take a photo. Sadly the dog had turned it’s head and I missed the shot that was head on. This dog, sitting in the driver’s seat waiting for his person to come back to the car. He looked like he was the driver. It cracked me up. Delight in the little things!
