Charleston's Cooled Down But Still Hot With Things To Do

Things have cooled down quite nicely in the Holy City this past week, speaking of the weather. Goodbye to the whopping humidity and dripping wet shirts on the golf course. But that's summer in Charles Towne. I wouldn't have it any other way. Now, Fall activities are heating up and there is still plenty to do out there before winter settles in, that is, what southerners call the period of time between December and February and what visiting northerners call a break from the winter. Here is a short list of upcoming events and activities.
