Carol came to visit the week between Christmas and New Year's. We went to lots of parties and ate fine holiday fare. We also visited Savannah where we ate lunch at Paula Deen's restaurant - Lady & Sons. In the first photo we went to the Andrew Low House, father in law of the founder of the Girl Scouts Juliette Gordon Low. Next two photos are in Beaufort, a cute little town just 1/2 hour north of our home. Carol and I took a carriage tour and saw the beautiful old houses and trees. Lots of movies have been filmed here including The Prince of Tides, The Great Santini, The Big Chill, and many scenes of Forrest Gump. Last day we drove to Charleston where we took another carriage tour and saw bigger and more beautiful homes. The largest house is a whopping 24,000 square feet on three floors. We shopped in the old market buildings and ate a fabulous seafood meal at Hyman's Restaurant. We ate at a table where Pat Conroy and Erma Bombeck had sat.
Carol flew home on the 31st and we spent much of the day napping and getting ready for New Year's Eve.
