One of the many great things about Charleston is that it is a community that bikes. Everywhere you look, you see folks riding bicycles. Unfortunately most are riding without helmets, but that story is for another time. I loved this dedicated “bike parking lot”.
A bookstore right in front of the bike parking lot uses cool combination advertising.
One of the purposes of the trip was to bring my son a bicycle so he’d be able to join the other cyclists in commuting and in play.
One evening, Andrew and I rode through Hampton Park and from there, found a curvy little pathway that led to the Ashley River.
It was the perfect place to watch the sun set over the river.
Such peace and tranquility … I was almost ready to move there!
the lovely serenity of this post…perfect with my morning coffee
It was a lovely evening, and I’m glad it went so well with your coffee (don’t you just love a quiet cup in the morning?)
Beautiful scenery shots LB. Happy biking.
Thanks Jerry! One bike or the other, right?
Exactly! 😉
I’m loving how you jump from one type of bike to another! I love Charleston. Your son is very lucky to be living there!
Andrew is indeed fortunate … I know there are some downsides to living in a southern tourist destination (people / heat / cost) but the positives far outweigh any negatives. He is loving it!
A) how could you have a grown up son? B) It’s great to have safe roads for cycling to work and planned parking. We are soooo behind in that here.
I loved that bike parking space! How cool is that? and yes! An adult son! How on earth did that happen 🙂
My sister used to live outside of Charleston, in a town called Summerville. When I’d visit her we’d go into Charleston. It is beautiful there!! I went with my son, but he was just a little guy then. He’s 24 now, and by gosh, it DOES go by fast. Love the photos!
Thanks Mary! Isn’t amazing to think we have adult children? Mine is 28!
Gorgeous light in those shots Laurie x
Thanks! Don’t you all live on a lake? I’ll be you see the same wonderful images
Yes we do, Fitty has so many beautiful shots of the lake, the sun setting on it, moonlight shining on it etc. Even I can take a good shot of our lake, it’s just so beautiful here!
Beautiful, the curvy pathway photo is perfection.
Thanks! I loved that little pathway …
