Down the alley

Charleston, SC    

Love the iron work on the upper porch on this house tucked away on one of Charleston's alleyways.  They actually fit a joggling board on the porch.

Porch weather

Old Charleston Jail, Magazine St., Charleston, SC   

Warm and muggy. It's porch weather. 

Is it still called a piazza in Charleston if it is on the back of the old jail? 

The roof even looks like an old witch's hat, doesn't it? 

Boo!

Colorful times on Chapel St.

Chapel St., Charleston, S.C.

This house must be occupied by creative and fun people. Click to enlarge the photo. Wowza! I can't tell if it is already decorated for Halloween or if this is the regular theme. My house doesn't have to look like this but I am glad someone's does. Check out at all the little stacks of flat stones. I'd hate to see this place after a windstorm. Fun times!

Behind the Orange Curtain

Cool, eh? A little antique shop in the old breezeway between two buildings with eye-catching bright orange drapes. It is the John Pope Antique store. I've never been in it but walked past hundreds of times. I wonder what kind of treasures he has up there? Here is a little more info.

Happy Friday, kids! It's been a long, sniffly week but I've pulled it off. The weekend feels like a welcome friend. At least I am ahead of the game and have "head cold" checked off the list for 2012. Done.
