During the first week in March we moved to a new AirBnb in the “West Ashley” area of town where we will stay for the remainder of our time in Charleston. Exploration of this new space brought us to Charles Towne Landing, a historic site now part of the South Carolina State Park system. This expansive space off of the Ashley River was where English settlers first landed in 1670 and its manicured gardens, historic homes, and other artifacts help tell the story of the first people who made up this South Carolina colony. We enjoyed spending the afternoon strolling among the live oaks, admiring new blooms, and immersing ourselves in imagining what it would have been like to live in this place over 300 years ago.
