Winter 2003 Ramblings


The adventures continue even through the winter of 2003.  While a lot of my ramblings have taken me across South Carolina, the increased courseload of my fall semester has largely kept me home-bound, so to speak, and unable to roam very far.  Therefore, a lot of my pictures from the winter are from right here in Charleston.

But nonetheless, INTERESTING places in the South Carolina Lowcountry ...


The Coburg Cow,
Savannah Highway in Charleston, S.C.

For at least two generations, the Coburg Cow and the sign have been landmarks along Charleston's Savannah Highway at St. Andrews Shopping Center.  As time has gone on, the shopping center has gone from community strip mall to something more upscale and the Coburg milk plant has long since moved away.  However, the company keeps the cow as a sort of landmark in this area.

The Cathedral of St. John the Baptist,
Broad Street in downtown Charleston, S.C.

The Cathedral is a Gothic structure on Broad Street, near King, downtown.  The interior is breathtaking and well-worth the time spent to visit there.  If you're downtown, be sure to stop and check it out.

Tombstone of President Andy Jackson's mother,
College of Charleston in downtown Charleston, S.C.

This small marker next to the Robert Small library tells of the nearby burial site of President Andrew Jackson's mother.  It notes her advice to never use a lawer, urging "instead settle those cases yourself".

Shark Attack at Lawyer's Office
Folly Beach, S.C.

Yes, a lawyer's office ... no survivors.  HAHAHA!

St. James Catholic Church,
Colleton County, S.C.

I found this old and fairly simple church in southern Colleton County, in a community known as Catholic Hill.  The location being in the Lowcountry, I was not surprised that I never could find the hill.

UFO Welcome Center
Bowman, S.C.

Those coming off the first Bowman exit on I-26 past Orangeburg will have the opportunity to visit this Welcome Center.  While there is a modest fee for humans and others, I understand aliens can visit for free.
