Yes, I know we've been lax in keeping you updated on what we've been doing the last few days.....we've been too busy for the internet!
So here is an update!
On our way from Myrtle Beach to Charleston I saw a sign for a plantation that was open for tours so we stopped. What we learned was why none of the families spent the summer in the stately mansions.....HEAT and BUGS!! Thankfully the park ranger at the Hampton Plantation had some bug spray to share (which Jen finished off with her second application! LOL!). The Hampton Plantation was an indigo and rice plantation and the interior of the home was stripped to show how the house was modified from a modest 6 room farm house to a 12 room mansion that hosted the first President of the United States.
