Called at the Historic Traveler's Rest for a quick view, before heading into South Carolina to stop at Mt. Carmel Corps of Engineers campsite near the site of Fort Charlotte (British built in 1766), the remains lie at the bottom of the lake.
Moved further south to Columbia then visited Congaree National Park, the largest intact expanse of old growth bottomland hardwood forest remaining in the southeast United States. Since most of the park is designated wilderness we enjoyed the 2.4 mile boardwalk, so peaceful and so many giant trees.

Roy then made a major decision to just "pop" down to Savannah. We had missed seeing the sights last year and I thought it a great idea. It was prompted by the fact I was having big problems with wifi and got it into my head there was something wrong. So we shot down the interstate and stopped just 15 miles away - we will spend the day there tomorrow......And the wifi works!
