Greetings. “IT IS PLEASANT TO HAVE BEEN TO A PLACE THE WAY THE RIVER WENT.” Henry David Thoreau penned those words, which perfectly express the pleasant feeling I still retain after having visited a place in South Carolina that was carved over the centuries by the winding May River. It’s a place where residents have built […]
Hi there! Today I thought I’d continue to share with you the adventures of my Southern road trip. The first stop on our journey was The Inn At Little Washington, where we visited the charming village, ate the best meal of our lives and, generally, had a magnificent time. So, how do you top that?

Hi there! If you’ve been following along lately, you may have noticed I’m kinda on a roll, a Duke roll. Having just returned from attending my son’s graduation from Duke University I have been busy editing the hundreds of photos I shot during the 4 day trip. So, today I thought I’d post a continuation […]
