The tragic events in Charleston makes me feel so sad. I visit the city every year and when we were there this past April I took many great photos...a lot from the carriage that we rode in. Charleston is so full of history, some bad but the past can't be changed nor should it be forgotten or ignored. The old Slave Market is a good example. As we shop for souvenirs, clothes and other do-dads, we must remember what these building were used for originally. The wonderful houses, churches and cemeteries, are all steeped in the history of southern living. Although it seems charming on the surface we must remember the past so history does not repeat itself.
