November 8 and 9, Charleston, South Carolina Mile 469 part one


another live aboard boat in Charleston


Ravenel Bridge


a live aboard sailor returning to his boat


we have to find out the name of this tree, but the branched grow into each other


checking out the moss and ferns growing on a stone wall


coming into Charteston


being greeted by Bottlenose Dolphins is always a good sign


we arrived just in time to see Catherine and Gavin, from JUMP, heading out to sea, for a 2-3 day passage to St. Augustine, Florida … we haven't seen each other for about 3 weeks


our days passage 3.25 hours and 16 nm


a beautiful wooden 150'- 175' at the dock


everyone is fish in'




all of the porches are on the side of the homes












there is a free trolley system, we took advantage of it to buy groceries and sight see different parts of the historic town


the City Market, sometimes called the Slave Market,  … the building is about 50 feet wide and goes long wise for 3 city blocks


sea grass baskets


tiles from old homes


walking from one building to another


telephone wire baskets from South Africa, I just had to buy one, mine is something like the small one to the right


some more of the baskets


Joe stopped for pizza, and we could not get over the size of the pizza's made


back to the market, these are from pop bottle tops, the artist was quite good


a tile painting …. part two to follow
