Today is National Pet Day: Celebrate with Dogs of Charleston: Our Favorite Companions

Read More

Life in the Lowcountry is just a little bit better with our four-legged furry companions.  Whether it is at the beach, having a beer, sitting by the pool, walking the historic streets or just laying in bed together, dogs are as important as the history of this city itself.

They calm us, put us in a good place and bring joy every day.

They are a gift of unconditional love and it is no wonder we celebrate them so much here.

As an ode to our loving companions and partners in crime, here is a gallery celebration of the dogs of Charleston

Thank you to all the wonderful folks that tagged and shared their pictures with us on Instagram and all over the social stratosphere. It was fun living out this Winter fantasy in our little coastal beach playground.  To say we embraced the snow is an understatement and it looks like the whole country noticed.

Here is a look back at 6 years when Charleston truly became a Winter Wonderland and for a brief moment, we all felt like innocent children!

On Sunday, November 20th, the Saint James Church on Camp Road (James Island) will host its final service at this location after 302 years.

Founded in 1720, this church has served the local community with open arms as well as the final resting place for prominent forefathers and foremothers of the Lowcountry.

On the dawn of the emotional final service, we wanted to share a photo journey and pay homage to the Saint James Church (1872 Camp Road).

The church will resume next month with a different denomination

Nothing beats the quiet few hours first thing on a Sunday morning as Charleston recovers from the evening before and prepares for faith services and another day of shopping, dining and drinking.

There is a meditative calmness during this time, but also a period to admire the architecture, signs, reflections and foliage

Enjoy this photographic walk this morning with us:

Happy Sunday y’all

Even in the face of adversity, Charleston beauty finds a way to shine through. As I walked downtown saying hello to local homeowners cleaning the debris, I was showered by the remarkable blend of color and beauty all around less than a day after Hurricane Ian passed.

With blue skies and cooling temperatures, we enjoyed a pleasurable morning stroll and captured some moments

Here are some of the pictures from downtown Charleston, the day after Ian:

Spooky surprise picture
