Graduation…I’m finally done

Here’s Justin and I at our makeshift grill in the yard

May is all about warm weather. About GRADUATION and about Cinco de mayo. About Mother’s day and about Mulberries ( which have made it into every crack of our wooden floors). The beach is beautiful and the water is still cool enough to give you a tingle. Justin has left us and out on the road trip of a lifetime, going to Alaska. Hopefully he’ll send some pictures and we can pass them along. The French Quarter Art Walk, the North Charleston Art Festival, and Spoleto are all happening this month, it’s a great time to be in Charleston. The Charleston Greek Fest (always a favorite) is happening on the 12th-14th and you can Salsa the Night away on Folly Beach Pier on the 12th of May. There is some cool stuff going on at the Gibbes Art Museum and you can check that out at www.gibbesmuseum.org. If nothing else, come for the Confederate Jasmine and a little lemonade. We’re having a summer solstice party in June, we’ll keep you posted. See you soon.

Look at our shiny new kitchens
And fancy new bathrooms…
