Great SC Trip!

 

I'm back from my yearly trip to South Carolina. I have lots of photos to post but I'm starting with one of the most beautiful places in the state. I had a lovely time despite my physical limitations. Can't do a lot of the things that I used to do but I make the most out of life. I want to thank my SC family for all their kindnesses while I was there. They went beyond the call of duty. I love you all.

Beautiful Brookgreen Gardens

              Spent a lovely few hours at Brookgreen. We rented a scooter so I was able to covered a lot of the garden areas. It was a beautiful sunny day and I enjoyed it so much. Thank you Allison for handling the scooter and spending time with me (and for lunch)

                             

                                                  Love the color of these Siberian Iris

                                                                           Foxglove

A lot of the Azaleas were fading but these were still beautiful.This is one of my favorite areas and I have taken many photos of this little cherub.

Belle Isle

 

Major work happening at the Belle Isle Casino. I took these pictures back in November. The casino is undergoing renovations and hopefully we will see wedding receptions soon in this beautiful building.

I saw on the Belle Isle Photography Page on Facebook that the scaffolding is coming down from the main dome of the conservatory. I hope that it opens soon. I have really missed going there this winter and especially missed the beautiful orchids.

Too Beautiful for Words

Waterfall Journal

One of my favorite journals that I’ve done so far! Thanks to Stamperia papers the journal is so colorful. I’m in love with it and will keep it for myself.
