Angel Oak

Angel oak is a beautiful, old live oak tree near Charleston.  'Live oak' is the name of the tree species, not the health status, just like white oak or burr oak indicates the species.  Some have claimed it is the largest, oldest tree east of the Mississippi.  The visitor center (a delightful little cabin with a welcoming porch) has some literature (and by literature I mean a piece of paper taped to the door) saying the oak tree is 300-400 years old, but LEGEND says it's 1500 years old.  Either way, it's pretty spectacular.

We also went to Beach Walker Park at Kiawah Island.  It was a bit cold and windy for beach walk, so we didn't linger long.  But, we did see some cool jellyfish washed up on the sand.  Neeto.
