Charleston Is So Cool!

Sometimes living here we get to focused on the paths from home to work from work to school from school to the grocery store and back home again, forgetting to look around a little more. I thought it would be nice to post a few links to help us approach our familiar territory with the appreciation usually reserved for the unfamiliar.

For instance did you know that Charleston routinely ranks in Travel & Leisure magazine's Top 10 cities in North America? http://www.travelandleisure.com/worldsbest/2007/results.cfm?cat=citiesusca

Or that you can cruise right out of Charleston Harbor? http://www.port-of-charleston.com/cruises/cruises.asp

Or that the Southern National BBQ & Bluegrass Festival is held right here in August? http://www.boonehallplantation-specialevents.com/

And of course the Charleston Area Visitors Bureau website can give you lots more good ideas: http://www.charlestoncvb.com/

What a gift to be at home in the Lowcountry!
