Yesterday was wonderful. Perfect weather; azaleas popping; and HUMAN COMPANY!
It was very nice to spend time in Charleston: it’s such a pleasant city. But human nature is funny: it’s so much more pleasant when you can enjoy things with someone else.
Frankly, I had some doubts when Connie suggested that she meet me in Charleston. I really didn’t know how that was going to work out. But I have to give her credit:
- She brought everything she needed in a single canvas bag (no hard-sided luggage)
- She can shower and dress for dinner in 15 minutes
- She’s a good conversationalist
Here’s Connie and Guinness and me and Guinness at the Cooper River Park. You can tell which of us is the better photographer.
We walked for almost three hours; very little human or automobile traffic.
We had lunch in a French bistro; drinks at a rooftop bar; and a very nice dinner at a restaurant called Revival. Great chocolate martini! Yes, I know, it’s a chick drink. But boy was it yummy.
Looks like it’s going to be another nice day today – we were shocked to realize that we both leave tomorrow. Connie flies back to Aspen, and I am heading 90 miles north to Wacca Wachee. Or maybe I’ll go outside to Murrel’s Inlet. We’ll see if I have a weather window.
I’d better log out now and start planning.
