    I've toured the area and have worked in the Courthouse researching titles to properties. The…read morehistoric documents found were astonishing! From slaves having been given to family members and business owners, it amazes me still that slavery was a trade! It truly is shocking!!!

    Why is it called the Four Corners of Law?…read more This four corners in Charleston is pretty cool. Nothing like the Four Corners Monument we visited in 2012 that marked the quadripoint in the Southwestern US (where the states of AZ, CO, NM, and UT meet). No, this four corners intersection are made of historic buildings -- Courthouse and US Post Office,, State Courthouse, City Hall, and the St. Michael's Church. 1- United States Post Office and Courthouse - 1896 Post Office, representing the federal government 2- State Courthouse - this 1792 courthouse represents county government 3- City Hall -symbolizes city government which begun in 1800 4- St. Michael's Church - the church was built between 1752 and 1761 and depicts ecclesiastical law These amazing historic structures are located on the southwest corner intersection of Meeting and Broad Streets in downtown Charleston. For our Monday visit the streets were pretty empty due to Covid and I was able to get some nice shots of the buildings. Interesting trivia: The Four Corners of Law was coined in the 1930s by Robert Ripley, creator of Ripley's Believe it or Not! and it has been called that ever since. Review #1847

    This was an amazing experience. I would suggest planning this out ahead of time. The Fort is free…read more You need to pay for the ferry that takes you there. Tickets can be bought online or at the visitor center. Small discount if you buy the tickets online. There are two spots for the ferry. One is in Charleston and the other is Patriot Point in Mt Pleasant. I left from Charleston. It's about a 30 minute ferry ride to the fort. You get to see views of the bridge and the USS Laffey on the way to the fort. I enjoyed my time there. I was on the last tour of the day. The last tour looks for volunteers to take the flag down for the day. I would suggest volunteering, it was very memorable. There was a lot of historical information that the rangers went over. It's self guided but you can talk to the rangers and ask questions. Ranger Chris was amazing. Very personable and full of knowledge. He definitely enjoyed what he does. He spoke for a portion of the ride back to give more information including places to eat in Charleston. I would visit again, but this time leave from Patriot Point to see the museum.

    We took the tour out to Fort Sumter. It was a nice ride out there but I can see how it could get…read moretreacherous with the water and currents around the fort. It was a very somber experience wandering around and looking at what this event were stationed here had to deal with. They did not have anyplace to run. It makes you wonder about those soldiers tht put their lives on the line. The place is maintained very well and it's a self guided tour with a brochure/map to help you understand. To see the cannons in the classmates and just imagine the noise and rumbling when they were fired. If you are into history it's a great place.
