Johns Island, South Carolina
While on our girlfriends escape last weekend
we visited Johns Island, which is the largest island in the South Carolina
where we found this magnificent live oak
as you can see it is an old giant
the beauty of it was almost over whelming.
While visiting I was in awe of it, but once I sat down
and started going through my pictures
is when I really realized just how magnificent it really is.

I love this shot because it shows just how
big the limbs are compared to the gentleman in the shot

the branches sprawled all over the grounds.
They had stakes and ties to help support the massive limbs

With all the rains we have been having the
resurrection ferns were pretty and green.

it looks like the perfect fairy tale tree
If you go to Charleston make sure you stop by and visit Johns Island
not only did we see this beauty we also visited the
Irvin House Vineyards and Firefly Distillery and had supper at The Fat Hen.
My favorite herb grower Sea Island Savory Herbs is also on the island
but it was to cold and early to stop by.
I plan on making a quick trip back
just as soon as they let me know the tomato plants are ready to sell.
Hope everyone is doing well. I have so much to share
but I have been doing a lot of running around and playing
and not much picture editing and blogging. Soon.. I promise...
