NC09 (SC03) — Plantation and Fort

Today's outing included two quintessential elements of a visit to South Carolina: Boone Hall, a working plantation; and Fort Moultrie.  Both have deep histories, starting before the Revolutionary War.  They are both well set up to receive visitors.  The weather has drifted toward oppressive, with high temperatures in the mid 90s, high humidity, and surprisingly strong winds (which are not too comfortable for these high temperature plus high humidity conditions).  (There is a severe thunderstorm watch in the area this afternoon, but we've not seen any sign yet of storm action.)
