SOL 31/31

Although I wish I could take credit for these pictures, they were all taken by my twin brother, Daniel.

On a trip to Hilton Head exactly one year ago, (last spring break) We went on a boat tour around a lake to look at the various animals. Here is the result: 


Later on the trip, we took a boat to Daufuskie Island. There were no cars on the island, so we rented a golf cart to explore the island. It had old decrepit cemeteries with graves dating back to the late 1700's, an old lighthouse where a woman had killed herself, old slave quarters, a beach where fifty indians had been massacred, and scattered remnants left by civil war troops. On top of that, a section of the island was dotted with mansions. It was truly an amazing and unique place - brimming with history, with beautiful but eerie scenery. The island had an unsettling feeling because of it's dark past and because of the thick and dark forests. The island was of the grid - and with all the historic sites, it del like a step back in time. Except for the mansions and yachts, of coarse. Here are some more pictures:
