Magnolia By The Ashley River

A view of the main house, Magnolia Plantation. The back side here faces the Ashley River. Most likely this was the front before it was the back. All commerce and traffic traveled along the rivers in the 1700-1800’s.

They had to rebuild most of this after the federal army passed. They were burning the Charleston plantations as they passed by. By then the roads were used not the rivers.

It’s A Ford !

Cars & Coffee.

A group of local car lovers, with what I assume to be some extra cash, get together on weekends with their antique cars. Most are antiques, but not all.

While I’m not much of a car person I certainly appreciate these.

Found On A Walk, Most Creative Bicycle

The theme here might have been ‘Built Not Bought’.

A friend invited me to a small local car show. This was a chance for us to get the cameras out and shoot in a different direction.

The cars were great, however the bicycle caught my attention. The owner brings a bike to the clubs weekend meetings. It turns out the car owners are also fascinated with what he built. In fact there are a total of nine different bicycle works.

In the next month or so there will be a dedicated Charleston exhibit of the nine works.

Best viewed large.

Signs I Found

When out, especially in new places, I hope to find painted signs, the bigger the better.

Some towns let them fade away, others are proud of them and keep them alive.

I think this was from a parking lot in Wilmington, North Carolina.
