Charleston

George and I visited one of our good friends Anthony over the weekend in Augusta. He is a high school band instructor and was having a football game on Friday and so we decided to see him in action. On our way down, we stopped off at Mistletoe Park and went hiking with Bear. It was a beautiful Fall day! We had a wonderful time visiting Anthony and really appreciated his hospitality.

After visiting Anthony, we decided to head over to Charleston for a couple days. Our first visit, Patriot's Point, was worth the whole trip. We toured the USS Yorktown (CV-10) which was the tenth aircraft carrier to serve in the United States Navy. It was a city unto it's own and took us all afternoon to tour.



















































































That evening, George and I celebrated our 1-year anniversary from when we got engaged. We walked around historic Charleston and visited The Market and The Battery. We then went for a nice dinner at a Japanese restaurant and then out for coffee and dessert.

Before we left on Monday, we walked around Folly Beach. We couldn't believe how expensive property front was (millions for a small home). The pictures that we took with Bear look painless, but it really took about 20 times since Bear HATES the water. Regardless, we all had a wonderful, rejuvenating weekend visiting our friend and touring Charleston.
