Plantation Day, (spring break '10)

Patrick's Parents came up for the day on Monday the 5th. It was such a fun day of exploring Charleston.  Patrick's mom had a pass to get into DRAYTON HALL PLANTATION, so we all went! It was very historical and so pretty.  I learned it was one of the only left standing plantations in this area since the Civil War.
I also learned they are preserving it, instead of restoring it. THis means all is left as it was, paint on walls, ceiling etc.  No furniture etc of any time period. 
It was so beautiful and the weather was perfect!!

We left the plantation and then went downtown Charleston for some more exploring and at lunch at the wonderful POOGAN's PORCH.. it was a wonderful little place to eat lunch and goodness was it good!!! :)

All in all it was a wonderful afternoon/evening with Patrick's family!
