Aahh, ya doesn't has to call me Hayzul...

Hasell St., Charleston, S.C.
Interesting! I stopped in my tracks when I saw this ornate cage structure on an old Charleston house on Hasell St. I need to go back to see who they keep in the cage at night.

Hasell St. has one of those quirky lowcountry pronunciations. It is pronounced as: Hasell  –  HAY• zul
The SCIWays site has a great South Carolina pronunciation guide:

Fun Store Window Scene


Merrill Benfield Interior Design, Hasell St, Charleston, SC

I was lugging a backpack full of groceries home from Harris Teeter the other day when I spotted this happy surprise. What a cool store window design! We should take turns dressing the part and sitting in the chair in the scene. It would be fun to see how long it took passers by to notice.
