I'm so glad to be alive. I just got back from an amazing trip to South Carolina. I spent a week in Hilton Head and traveled to Savannah Georgia, Charleston and Easley (my first area on my mission). I was able to travel with Roseanne, Bryce and Bryce's parent Theron and LaDean. We went to look at flowers. They did not disappoint us. The azeala's were so beautiful. My favorite part was the time we spent at the Magnolia Plantation. This is one of very few plantations still owned by the original owners. The gardens there were so beautiful.
These are just some of the amazing pictures I took while I was there. Then we spent time at the water front in Charleston.
It reminded me of so many things but especially of my mission. It has been almost 20 years since I first went to South Carolina. I was such a different person then. I feel like part of my character was molded by the people of the South and the experiences I had there. I have such a love for those people. It is a love that doesn't end just because I am not there any longer. I may have forgotten where my apartment was in Easley but I didn't forget my journey there.
I want to express my gratitude to Roseanne and Bryce for making it possible for me to go back there and experience this again.
