BEAUFORT, BLUFTON, PORT ROYAL, LADIES ISLAND, HILTON HEAD, HUNTING ISLAND, SOUTH CAROLINA
How lucky for all of us when Steve and Gwen bought their home in Port Royal, South Carolina. Aside from the house being delightful, what a special place for us to visit and relax! Friends and family welcome warmly and with open arms. Walks on the beach, boat rides, good company and great food add up to a very special experience that we carry with us for a long time after we come home. But WATCH OUT! It may be addicting! You may be seeing more of us than you expected!

"The Church Of The Cross" built in 1854 in Blufton, SC. Initially, “The Bluff” of the May River which became Blufton, was a summer resort for planters from the area as well as inland and it was a stop on the ferry route between Savannah and Beaufort. Union soldiers burned Blufton in 1863, but this church survived.
