Charleston, SC

Today we walked around The Battery area of Charleston with all of the historic homes. Damn cool baby!! I’ll bet these homes are really expensive to maintain so I am glad I don’t own one, but the location and coolness factor is tough to beat. Some pics of the area:
Got some more pics of Patriots point and the USS Yorktown. My buddy Brian’s grandfather did a tour of duty on this ship…very cool. These are for him:
Our friends Terry and Cassandra from Isle of Palms drove into town to meet us for a Charleston pub crawl…way cool!!! We started with rooftop bars and moved on to the highest rated bars for cocktails. The Gin Joint was the most exotic with ingredients that I never heard of…and I have tried a lot of liquor. Absinth was the most interesting. It was used in the old days as a hallucinogen and it made an interesting buzzzzzz! We finished the night going to The Tattooed Moose for dinner. It was featured in Diners Drive Ins and Dives and was a real hoot. Glad to have another day/night with our friends before we moved on. Charleston rocks!!!! Can’t wait to come back.
Rec’d a call from a couple of the bars we visited while the two of you were in town. They’re happy you’re going to be “Absinth” for a while so they can restock and recover.
Cheers!
Now that’s funny!
