Charleston Wine Co., the city’s first and only urban winery, is set to open at 63 S. Market Street later this year. Attorney-turned-winemaker Lindsey Williams, who launched Davidson Wine Co. in 2018 in the suburbs of Charlotte, is now bringing her globally-sourced grapes from the best wine-making regions of the world to the Holy City, a city she deeply loves and admires.
Lindsey is proud to be a part of the 1% of winery owners who are African-American. A native of Ohio with a background in law, Lindsey’s journey is as exceptional and varied as her wines, which will range from merlots, Cabs, and Chardonnays to Barolos, Gewürztraminers, Pinotages, Petit Verdot, and Ports. Soon, Charleston locals and visitors alike can join Lindsey and her team for wine tastings, premier charcuterie, tasty desserts, and more.
Stay tuned for updates on construction and details of the Grand Opening. See you Fall, 2021.
The book is called ‘Turtle’ and is the first in a series called Run Like A Girl. A fictional middle grade book about living and running in the Lowcountry, it is truely a testament to Coach Tami Dennis and the amazing running program she has created with the Mount Pleasant Track Club.

There is a chapter in it called ‘Turtle ‘where the main character goes on Turtle Patrol on S.I. My daughter Julia is a seventh grader at Laing and she runs for MPTC and is a varsity XC runner for Lucy Beckham HS as well.

We are please to announce that StorageCafe has named Mount Pleasant the 7th best destination for snowbirds. How is how the results were measured and what put our Mount Pleasant in the top 10.
Mount Pleasant has access to about 8 miles of beaches plus plenty of park space. Typically for the area, the average October-March temperature here is a very acceptable 58 °F.
There are five golf courses, and a high number of health centers per 1,000 of the population, no less than 4.7. The town also ranks high for safety.
The median rent and house price figures are currently $1,827 and $591,168, and the internet speed is a zoombird-friendly 481 MBps.
South Carolina has three top-100 snowbird destinations.
To find the best cold-season hideaways, we looked at almost 1,000 places around the US and evaluated eleven factors, including:
Temperatures from October to March (obtained from Weather Source)
Housing for snowbirds: Availability for seasonal use, and median cost to rent and to purchase as a second home
The incidence of crime per capita in each destination
The length of beach found beginning no more than 10 miles from a destination
The amount of park space per capita and the number of golf courses nearby
Local internet speeds, as many snowbirds will be zoombirds or may simply want to blog a lot — the average over all the places we considered is 336 MBps
The number of health care and social assistance establishments per 1,000 of the local population — the average over all the places we considered is 3.2
The cost of renting a self storage unit — snowbirds visiting the same destination every year, and even second-home owners, can ease their luggage burden by keeping golf clubs, surfboards or seasonal clothes in a unit

CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA – October 28 – Following a settlement announced by the Department of Justice to the families and survivors of the 2015 Mother Emanuel AME Church shooting, State Representative JA Moore (D-Berkeley), the brother of one of the Emanuel 9, released the following statement:
“Financial restitution is not justice. Real justice will occur when the hate that drove Dylann Roof to commit that terrible act – which took away my sister – is driven from our society.
The Charleston loophole is still open. I will keep fighting to end it.”

In addition to ice cream, guests can enjoy a rotating selection of sorbets, soft serve, beer, wine, and more, at select locations. Today, OddFellows has opened scoop shops in Brooklyn Bridge Park, Domino Park, Dumbo, Riis Beach, Chestnut Hill, MA, and Seoul, South Korea, with plans to open additional locations in McCarren Park (Fall 2021), Pittsburgh, PA (Fall 2021), Tampa, FL (Fall 2021) and across the Southern United States.
