The bridge shown in these photos spans the north fork of the Charleston harbor to the pennisula holding downtown Charleston, something like San Francisco.
I believe the bridge is similar to the one being built to replace the eastern end of the San Francisco bay bridge. It is beautiful and a pleasure to drive.
Charleston has done a wonderful job of preserving and restoring its many historic buildings and this has done much, along with many fine restaurants, to insure a thriving tourist business. We took a carriage tour of the downtown and only as I write this do I realize that the last time we took a horse drawn carriage tour was on our honeymoon in Nassau, Bahamas. Seems especially appropriate and the trip, although short, was like a second honeymoon. It was hot, just like it was in the Bahamas but the heat didn't really dampen our pleasure.
I have wondered many times about the good fortune we had in meeting and making our life together. Of course there were difficult times but at no time did we seriously struggle to keep our marriage together, it has always been a central core of our lives. God has blessed us.
