We are HOME! We found a place! We are less than an hour away from Charleston, and just over an hour away from one of my favorite places in the world: Pawley's Island! We still have to get things set up "permanently" because now we won't be moving from campground to campground. YAY!
In our free time that we (might) have over the next two years, there is SO much to check out!
Right away, we are closest to Francis Marion National Forest and Lake Moultrie.
In Pawley's Island, I already know my faves. I love going to the beach, but this time we'll have to find public access instead of the hotel access! There's also the Hammock Shops that are always fun to check out, especially if the lady that weaves baskets is there. Be sure to stop in and watch some great guys make the hammocks, and if you go right when they open, you might leave with a free goodie! Lunch or Dinner? Quigley's Pint and Plate, Perrone's, Bistro 217, Dave's Dockside, Drunken Jakes, and for frozen take-out (and simply THE best southern cooking), Get Carried Away. And for that after dinner final touch, check out Bourbon and Burnz, right on Ocean Highway (17). They are a full service bar with over 200 brands of whiskey, and also is a cigar lounge. They have a big selection, you won't be disappointed!
Other interesting places:
The city of Charleston itself, Meeting Street Inn Bed & Breakfast, Magnolia Plantation and Gardens, Middleton Place, Fort Sumter, the Battery, Aiken-Rhett House Museum, McLeod Plantation, Sullivan's Island, Drayton Hall, Boone Hall Plantation, South Carolina Aquarium, Columbia Zoo, and so much more.
HOORAY! On to a celebratory drink, making dinner, and more settling in.
