I talked a little about Charleston in the last post but I really didn't do the place justice. As I wandered around the town with some friends I found many treasures hidden behind corners and small alleyways. I just want to share a few pictures and stories. If you ever get around to it you should explore Charleston. I like being able to travel because I get to explore places that never would have existed in my mind otherwise. I may not be discovering things for the first time in history, but I am for the first time in my history. My world is constantly expanding through big and little towns, long and short stories that I hear and experience, coffees I try, pictures I capture, books I read. They're all puzzle pieces that make up the map of where I've been and what I've learned. So even if you are exploring your hometown or five miles from it or five thousand miles from it, go explore. Go find some more puzzle pieces. Here are a few of mine:
First, the ocean.
And me embracing the ocean.
Some building I discovered.
I've decided I want one of these.
Doors and signs.
Expressions.
This is a tea and spice shop. They had hundreds of leaves and grinds and dips and brews.
Behind a very slim alley was a quaint set-up complete with fountain, garden, tea-table, and this bench.
The Black Fedora. A random treasure full of books and mystery items and a dining area where they put on mystery shows that the audience becomes a part of.
My hero: The Thin Man.
I love this picture. I wonder who they are.
When I saw this lovely gazebo I wished I had a dancing partner to share it with me.
And, for whatever reason, my favorite.
