Charleston





We spent a week in Charleston with Gracy's family at the beginning of July. Relaxing at the beach, traversing downtown Charleston, listening to some good bluegrass and Irish music, visiting Boone plantation, enjoying delectable seafood, and spending quality time with the family made for quite a trip. A favorite amenity of the house we rented was a four passenger golf cart. We made good use of it, piling our load of beach stuff on until we looked like the Beverly Hillbillies on our way to the ocean! We should have added a sign on the back proclaiming "Beach or bust!"
Of course, the hilight of the trip for Caleb was the ocean. He loved the beach even more this year than he did last year because instead of just eating the sand, he has discovered the joy of playing in it too! The tide pools, seashells and waves provided hours of entertainment. Who knew that "fwimmin" could be so much fun! Thanks to the Holder family for such a great time together!
