Sullivan's Island is a wonderful beach community about a 7 minute drive from our rental house in Mt. Pleasant. I love walking the beach around Ft. Moultrie. Edgar Allen Poe served in the US Army there and I am enthralled with the idea that I am walking where he walked as a young man. Chief Osceola, the revered Seminole Indian Chief is also buried on the grounds of the fort. The Catholic Church we are attending is across the street from the fort and is also "ancient," as is the Pastor! The church survived Hurricane Hugo and has a plaque at the high water mark to prove it. The beach is awesome and is at the entrance of Charleston Harbor. Below are photographs taken on an afternoon walk.
