I didn't get to see the H. L. Hunley or get out to Fort Sumter on the recent trip to Charleston, SC. But, I intend to get back.
We just didn't get going from Bluffton early enough Sunday to see the Hunley (which is only open on the weekends) and the weather wasn't cooperating on Monday or Tuesday. Miserable and rough weather isn't the best time to take a boat ride. I'd like to combine a Grayline Tour and Fort Sumter visit.
I guess you could say we took an inverse Sherman's March across South Carolina, starting in the northwest part of the state and proceeding to his destination of Columbia, south to Charleston (which he didn't attack) and then south to near Savannah.
Of course, OUR OBJECTS OF PILLAGE AND PLUNDER were NTN boxes, soft drinks, and alcoholic beverages. We had more fun.
Then, we spent a night at Folly Beach, SC, near Fort Wagner and the Swamp Angel.
Next Time. --B-R'er
