Trip to SC was GREAT– food extraordinaire, gloriously good weather, friendly people at every turn, and history, history, history! More to come. Most of the interior shots are from the Charleston Museum. And yes, that is me wearing a crinoline skirt in the interactive section of the Textile Wing. The metal badge stamped “Free” was for former slaves to carry, I believe. Research required.
