Charleston SC


If you haven't been to Charleston SC yet, you have to find time to experience it. If it's been a while since your last visit, now's the time to look at returning. Charleston drips with southern charm and finger licken southern delights. The shopping, the historic district, the harbor cruises, even the house drawn carriage rides past the incredible houses is worth the afternoon.


Check out the Charleston Historical Society for some extraordinary garden and home tours in downtown Charleston. The 2009 schedule kicks off in March. The best way to go is to find a date where the garden tour flows right into a private wine tasting at Circa 1882. It is one of the most incredible day experiences you will find in any city.


Try the Shad Roe at the Hominy Grill, ask a local how to find the Shrimp at the Wreck of the Richard & Charlene, grab a cup of coffee at a real coffee house-Gaulart&Malicet, and lastly if your like me and in such of great bourbon and good conversation, hit Moe's Crosstown Tavern. It's the sort of town wher you can still grab an ice cold glass bottle of coke in the local grocery. Charleston is and always will be one of my first options for a great value and an incredible experience.
