Charleston, South Carolina

Steve signed up to run a marathon on Kiawah Island which is about 20 minutes south of Charleston.  We had the wonderful pleasure of staying in my sister’s father-in-law’s house where he grew up right in Charleston.

We spent Friday at Patriot Point.  The kids loved it.

On the web site I knew there were 6 different tours on the USS Yorktown.  There is another ship and a submarine to see also, but it didn’t say anything about touring them.  So it was very exciting to go down into a submarine.  I don’t think I will be joining the navy to work on a sub!

This is a live Oak called the “Angel Tree.”

Here is Steve in front of the map of the race.  It is a small island and so in many places you come to the end of the road and turn around and run back.  He did finish the race in under 4 hours which was his goal.
