Chinese Lantern Festival - Charleston

Chinese Lantern Festival, Charleston, SC 

We were foiled on our first attempt to get to the Chinese Lantern festival by rain showers but we ended up having a perfect night for it this evening. Everything was perfect. We had a bite to eat at my house and headed that way. I'd had a sneak preview watching some of the workman creating the designs so it was a treat to see them lit and on display.

Rockabilla-Que!

Rockabillaque, Park Circle, North Charleston, SC

The Park Circle neighborhood of North Charleston is the perfect location for festivals and events and yesterday was the 7th annual Rockabillaque! Cars and motorcycles of every type were tucked into every nook and cranny. It was a lively and colorful event and everyone seemed to be having a good time.

Roots & Shoots Native Plant Nursery opens

Roots & Shoots, Wappoo Rd., Charleston, SC

Roots & Shoots Native Plants & Fruits nursery opened in their new location on Wappoo Rd. in my part of town this morning. Yipee!

I wasn't the only one who got their promptly but I did a quick in and out before my wallet had too much damage. I needed to talk to someone about some ground cover for a trouble spot and brought home a few plants to try. Welcome to West Ashley!
