Charleston, South Carolina

Serving Table at the Blue Willow Inn, Social Circle, GA


Saturday when we left Stone Mountain, we went to a little town called Social Circle. We had been told there was a restaurant there that was a must go to. It's called the Blue Willow Inn. YUM!!! Southern fried cooking at it's best. They had fried chicken, fried chicken livers, ham, roast beef, parmesan chicken, macaroni and cheese, sweet potato soufle' to die for! I could go on and on but I know your mouth is already watering! The desserts were fantastic too. It was a first for Donna - had sweet tea for the first time. It's so addicting!


We arrived in Charleston on Sunday afternoon. We are staying on James Island at the county rv park. It's very nice. Monday we took a boat harbor tour of the Charleston harbor and it was informative. Tuesday morning when Tom started checking our accounts, he found that someone had hacked into our credit card and was charging things. We spent most of Tuesday getting all that taken care of, so no sightseeing that day!


Yesterday, we went on a carriage tour of historical Charleston and we had a wonderful experience. Our carriage drive, Robert, is a licensed tour guide and a carriage driver, so he was very informative and a lot of fun. He told us stories and knew more dates and names that I can believe! He really made it a great exerience for us. After the carriage ride, we went to the city market. It is VERY old and was fun to walk through. We bought a little, but not too much.


We are leaving tomorrow for Myrtle Beach, SC, and will be there until May 2.
