It is wonderful when you like and get along with your daughter's in laws. We love this couple and met them in Charleston ,SC for fun as they drove north from FL to NJ. So we had two full days of touring. Dinner at Magnolia Rest. And SNOB. We did the city tour. Walked and shopped through the city market. Had a docent give us a tour of the Jewish Temple, and walked the streets. We spent one whole days at the Magnolia Plantation.

Carl is go to get a knee replacement next month. He walked with a cane. He was a very good sport. The weather was cold.
Magnolia Plantation
Slave houses. Two families duplex
Single slave house
Live oak trees
The owner planted acres of gardens. Or should I say he had the slaves play them. It was beautiful and we walked paths all over the place.
There was bamboo over 30 feet high.

We took a boat tour in the rice patties fields. The plantation owners made fortunes from the farming of rice. It ended after the Civil War as there were no slaves to farm it.

Friday with Shirley and a large group of Sea Pines women at the spring luncheon. Katherine Wall spoke about her 11 books that she wrote about the low country and Hilton Head. She was a good speaker and funny.
My friend Janet D does colored pencil drawings. Here are some of her art works. I could not believe how beautiful they were and done from pencils.
We had dinner at Thea H house. She served something my mother made all the time when we were growing up. jello with ice cream.
1 large package of jello, 4 cups of water. Mix together and then add 1 pint of ice cream. I think my mother let the jello get a little solid first and then added the ice cream.
