Charmed with Charleston
Volunteering at the Visitors' Center continues to give us something to chuckle about. The nicest people are purchasing tickets to the Piccolo Spoleto Festival. Two cute ladies, Betty and Helen, are attending an event Steve and I are ushering and they made us promise to greet them when we see them. Tickets sales are on the rise as opening day nears. Some of our customers are the performers themselves. Almost got one to sing... almost.
Our awesome friend Sharon joined us for lunch at Fish- a restaurant serving, "seasonally-inspired French-Asian Cuisine...al fresco on the piazza...A warm, eclectic and inviting space, Fish resides in a beautifully renovated, 1837 Charleston single-style home in the heart of Charleston's Upper King Design District."
We were thoroughly pleased with our selections (pictured is my fried tofu). The owner Russell, a friend of Sharon's (who isn't?), came by. When she explained our connection to Charleston and Spoleto, Russell asked Steve and me, "Can I marry you?" It was so unexpected and humorous. Nice, neat guy. Delicious, delightful lunch. Inspiring, inviting town.
