Even though we took a "beach vacation," it would just not be Ledbetter nature to spend everyday on the beach, and it was perfect! I have always said it is about the people you are with, not the place you are.

During my vacation in South Carolina, I experimented with food photography, and I loved it! Since I pretty much always had my camera with me anyway, it was not too much trouble to carry it to dinner or lunch when we would go out to eat. 

During our vacation in South Carolina, we spent an entire day at Boone Hall Plantation, which is right outside of Charleston. This plantation is one of the oldest working plantations remaining in the south.

While exploring Charleston, I was captivated by the buildings. Historic buildings dating to the 1700s stood right next to newer buildings. Buildings from each century stand in this city as witnesses to the history that has taken place there.

The very first thing we did in Charleston was a carriage ride around the historic downtown part of the city. Our horse, Dyna (short for Dynamite), and driver escorted us around historic streets and taught us a lot about the buildings, real estate trends and general history of the town.
