This beautiful overflowing flowerbed is a great accessory to a beautiful house on George Street built about 1790. The owner specified in his will in 1787 that the house be built for the benefit of his wife or daughters -- one of his daughters received it in 1791.

Flowers/Gardens

This house on Legare Street, built in about 1759, was renovated in 1911. Among the the changes made were the additions of the brownstone panels below the windows and the parapet. A little gussying up!

One of the great things about Charleston is that there is so much to see, photograph, sketch, or paint. Here a class is taking in the wonderful columns of St. Philip's Church.

Street/Park Scenes

The Ashley River in the late afternoon. It's a very vibrant environment full of life. While dolphin and pelican sightings are common, I recently spotted a large river otter swimming along -- a sighting I haven't had in a few years.

Sunrise/Sunset

This very cool looking "Independence-variant littoral combat ship" is the 6th naval vessel to be named after the city of Charleston. It will be commissioned the USS Charleston at an event tomorrow.  It looks pretty good posing in front of the Cooper River Bridge.

The Bridge

While walking along the Low Battery and the Ashley River, I had the pleasure of watching this pod of bottlenose dolphins put on quite the show -- fully leaping out of the water, twisting, spinning and then waving their tails in the air. No matter how many times you see them, it's always a pleasure to see dolphins.
