S T U N N I N G !

Well, I’m not exactly sure of the speed, but we headed over the Cosgrove Bridge on the way to Mount Pleasant… I grabbed my phone, rolled down my window and *snap *snap *snap… pretty incredible that the photo turned out this good while I was moving!

What a beautiful place Charleston is!

Catch you back here tomorrow!!

Fred (my husband) and I went out to lunch on my birthday, we headed to S.N.O.B. (gotta love that acronym) and had an amazing lunch. This is the view from the front of the restaurant (while we were waiting for our table, I thought I would be productive)!

Gotta love Charleston for so many reasons… the cool old buildings, unique shops, fabulous art galleries, the food, the people, the climate (well, most of the time)! If you haven’t been, I highly encourage you to visit!

Catch you back here tomorrow!

Shem Creek Park in Mount Pleasant, SC is a great place to visit, walk around, take photos, and if you’re an artist… to paint! Amazing views from many locations. Close proximity to restrooms and restaurants! Then you can grab some fresh seafood to take home with you. What could be better?

Enjoy your Sunday!  Catch you back here tomorrow!

Beautiful, right? There is nothing like walking around Charleston, SC… its just so pretty all the time! The window boxes are over the top gorgeous! It really makes a statement, doesn’t it? I guarantee you that someone is busy keeping that creeping fig trimmed so perfectly this time of year. I remember when we had it on our house. It was great, made the house look like an English cottage, but Fred had to get the ladder and go around the house twice a WEEK with scissors… then the bee’s got bad and we decided to take it off the house. Whew!

Have a wonderful weekend!!  Catch you back here tomorrow!

Brilliant Monhegan Sky!

Fred and I have been so fortunate to always have such fabulous weather when we visit Monhegan. This wonderful Maine island that sits off the coast is so special in every single way. What makes it so beautiful (other than the surroundings)? The everyday things, from the stacked lobster traps to the colorful clothes on the line blowing in the wind.

Magical. Absolutely magical!

Botany Bay Trail…

If you’ve never been to Botany Bay (near Edisto, SC), you don’t know what you’re missing! Beautiful beach, grand old oak trees that form a canopy over the road and are a sanctuary to many birds (and snakes)… beauty everywhere!

Have a great weekend and I’ll catch you back here tomorrow!

Island Inn Monhegan from the Wharf!

DSCN0689

Isn’t this just the best place ever? Monhegan is stunning and beautiful and when you step off the boat this is what you see. The Island Inn sits regally at the top of the hill. It’s worth the climb, trust me! If you’ve never been to Monhegan before, it’s a treat. It isn’t for everyone. If you’re looking for a golf course or a mall or to spend time watching TV, this is not the place for you. If you would like to see unspeakable beauty, meet some of the coolest people (other guests who come year after year quickly become like family) and taste some fabulous food, this is your place!

Catch you back here tomorrow! Back to my normal posts next week!
