On a slow trip back to NJ we stopped for two nights in Charleston, SC. We mostly just walked around the old town, enjoying the shirtsleeve weather and looking at all the old houses and gardens.

Back yard in Charleston.

Bed and Breakfast close to the Battery at the tip of downtown Charleston, across the street from White Point Gardens.

House.

Lots of fancy ironwork around, much of it designed to keep the curious out of private back yards.

A view across one of the older streets.

Church.
