I had a surprise Birthday Party for Dave.  He had no idea.  We went out to dinner, Uncle Rem watched the kids and called to say Lilly got sick in the basement.  When Dave went downstairs to clean it up, everyone was down in the basement.

When I left the house to walk Mars it was clear - half way through the walk, it snowed like crazy.

Charleston, Day 3

Today was our last day in Charleston.  It will be hard to leave the warmer weather, blooming trees and flowers, and the sunshine.  Charleston is such a welcoming, delightful city.  It was a great little get-away.  This morning we walked around the tip of Historic Charleston, looked at all the large, beautiful, historic homes along the water, walked through the battery, and then went back to the market.  We found sweet grass baskets.  These baskets were made by slaves and the tradition has been passed down.  They are beautiful and unique.  
After checking out of our hotel we drove up to Drayton Manner.  Drayton Manner was built in the European style.  They have preserved the house all these years and allow tours.  Surprisingly, the house has withstood the Civil War, hurricanes, and an earthquake.
After touring Drayton Manner we got drinks and snacks at a local coffee shop and headed to the airport.
