Here's the area of South Carolina that we visited. Charleston is on a point where the Ashley and Cooper Rivers meet to "form the Atlantic Ocean".
"I'm going to Charleston," Rhett Butler said to Scarlett O'Hara in Gone With the Wind. "I want to see if somewhere there isn't something left in life of charm and grace."
