All about Downtown Charleston’s Neighborhoods – a map, descriptions and more.

I created this Charleston neighborhood map years ago at the start of my ongoing project to eventually profile every single neighborhood on the Charleston Peninsula, including photos, videos, recreation, school, shops, restaurants and services.

Downtown Christmas Light Delight – By Bike

Last night it was a balmy Charleston Eve, so my husband and I decided to take a little two-wheeled spin around the quiet streets of Downtown to take a look at the Christmas lights.  I don’t know about ya’ll, but seeing houses lit up always makes me happy, so I thought I’d share the holiday cheer with you.  🙂 Here’s...

I have been having fun posting things about the Charleston lifestyle lately, so here’s another in the series.  Yesterday, the weather was a balmy 65 degrees with blue skies and sunshine, and along with the rest of the town, I decided it was time to get outdoors and enjoy this beautiful city of mine.  So I went kayaking.  Right in...
