Home early


Vanderhorst St., Charleston, S.C.

I love the sight of towels drying over a porch railing. It makes me hope that the occupants are having the perfect lowcountry summer. They should be working a little, studying enough to justify staying in town, spending a lot of time on the beach and yet not keeping me awake all night long (hint, hint).

I ended my day early with a photo op in town that didn't leave enough time to get back to my office so...oooops, I am home early. Walking home I cut through the MUSC shortcut between Ashley and Rutledge and spotted these flowers in the fountain. A lady called out asking if I was the "Charleston blogging lady" and explained that someone regularly left a floral arrangement in the fountain. Nice to meet you Terry! Thanks for saying hello.

I walk through that shortcut to get to the Wellness Center--there are flowers there and entwined in some of the benches several times a week. A very cheery person.

i think that I would camp out just to be able to see the person leaving the flowers. What a great spirit!

Downstairs - I love getting posts from "downstairs". Cracks me up every time! I need to check for flowers more often.

Kate - I will follow up on this. Sweet!

do you love being recognized?

"Beach towels" and "summer" just go together, don't they? :)

brattcat - I am uneasy until I know where people recognize me from. After all, it might be from that Incontinence commercial I was in for the hospital ;)

lowandslow - they really do. The sight makes me happy.
