back from SC

I’m back in the frozen tundra from holidays in South Carolina. Got a few pics around Charleston and the farm and will be posting over the next several days as, frankly, I’m going to need a few days before I’m ready to spend much time outside here.

From the family farm in Allendale, SC.  Trucks are red, tractors are green.

Oysters!

Mom built a full-out firepit/oyster roaster outside. Simple SC oyster cookin’ – dump live oysters on fire, cover with soaked burlap sack, steam, eat, repeat. We had a blast.

Came across this old folding Kodak in a local antique shop. At only $40 I was tempted, but I know it’s nearly impossible to get the 16mm roll film anymore. I love the old manual cameras and still shoot with my Pentax K1000, but I also want to be able to actually use them. Still, it’s a beautiful old camera in fantastic shape.

Does the front end look like an old steam locomotive or is that just me?

Had to order some supplies today and was glad I didn’t need them right away. Um, ok, I guess I’ll not do overnight!

sweeter’n sweet

A friend of mine pointed out the nearly 1 ton of sugar stacked in only one part of this store – River Street Sweets in Savannah. I think I gained 5lbs just breathing the air inside… and the pralines I consumed couldn’t have helped either.

Took a walk around Savannah before dinner tonight – love the beautiful open spaces of the squares in this town.

Wanted to climb up so badly, but the boat guy wouldn’t stop staring at me. It’s like he knew….

The best thing about this shot is it’s given me a great idea for one tomorrow. Let’s hope the weather stays clear.

Back to the grant. Dernit.

closed

The red attracted my eye so much I didn’t even see the “Keep Closed” sign until I got the pictures off the camera.

In Savannah, GA for a conference and really enjoyin’ bein’ back where the waffles are straight from heaven, the people talk right, and the grits are good.
