Charleston - A beautiful Swing














We drove 9 hours South to Charleston and celebrated our friend JP's 40th birthday. It is hard to believe this is very first time I visited this Southern charm after I lived in South for more than 10 years and left. We really had a wonderful time -beautiful weather, blue ocean, white beach, charming court yard cafe.... Especially once favorite plant - my elegant fig vine.


At the same time, it is a bit beyond expectation in the term of sanity. $38,000 price tag for a pair of stone lion heads -Sold, $42,000 for a library mobile stair. My $180 marble plant stand here can be asked for $1,200 there. Go figure that people are happy or crazy or a lot of bitchy rich divorced wife to burn some real green to vent the anger. After all it is a beautiful city. Finally Sammy had chance to visit his last project(finish after he left) of his old company - Charles Town Landing. That was really fun.
