Southern Tour: Charming Charleston

Posted on February 26, 2019August 31, 2020 by Annie

Of all the places I’ve visited in the South, Charleston has to be up there in the top 10. Even though it’s a city, and I’m more of a trails and beach person, Charleston thoroughly charmed me in the space of three days. It’s a very walkable city, with good sidewalks. I recommend walking rather than driving because, well, city traffic, and because you don’t miss all the little quirky things that make Charleston special.  The independent bookstore, Blue Bicycle Books, had a clever Valentines Day-inspired piece of artwork that made every patron smile as they walked by. This appeared…

Foggy Morning Fun

Posted on February 21, 2019August 30, 2020 by Annie

Now you might think a foggy morning at the beach wouldn’t be that much fun and you might be right. Except that I have an iPhone app called Slow Shutter (meaning the camera takes longer, like 2-4 seconds, to capture an image). I played around with that app this morning, since it was so foggy all I could really see was the beach directly in front of me. I really like how these images turned out. They show the motion of the water: the surf breaking, the water approaching the high tide line, then receding. To see the essence of…

Monday Playday: Colors

Posted on February 18, 2019February 18, 2019 by Annie

I went out for a walk on the beach this morning, greeted by a damp chill that made me glad I had grabbed the warmer jacket and the fleece hat. There were few humans willing to brave the elements but the pelicans were having a great time soaring south on the wind. And then the light changed. Oh, man, the light was gorgeous.  All I had was my iPhone so I used it to capture what I could.  When I got home and downloaded the images, they were grainy but the colors were there. So I haven’t edited them at all….

Update: Feb 13, 2019

Posted on February 13, 2019February 13, 2019 by Annie

I’ve slacked off on the weekly updates in favor of a more ad hoc approach this year. Now feels like a good time to catch people up on where I’ve been… Mid-February I pulled out of Gainesville and went a whole 30 miles to Gold Branch State Park, which is about halfway between Gainesville and the coast. After been stationary for 2.5 months, I treated this as a shakedown cruise, struggling to remember hitching up then unhitching and setting up camp. tl;dr is that I figured it all out. I made it to the coast on my next stop, a…

Tuesday Trees: SC Redux

Posted on February 12, 2019August 31, 2020 by Annie

I’ve been in South Carolina for a month and in the South for six, and still the live oaks fascinate me. There really is nothing like them. I used to think redwoods were my favorite but these live oaks, well, they’re growing on me. On the far end of the beach, past the point where the dogs can go is the place where the plovers nest and where this remnant of a tree stands its ground. Last winter, this tree was covered with shells and small tokens that people had left over time, many of them mementos of people special…
