Saying goodbye to the boneyard and quirky Edisto.

Thought I was done with the Boneyard Beach photos?

.

.

Almost…

.

.

I promise.

.

.

But who could resist framing their spouse in driftwood?

.

.

Making our way back to the path, I snapped my last photos.

.

.

.

.

And my husband joined in the odd shell placement tradition…

.

.

Trying to balance one on the sign.

.

.

Success.

.

.

Exiting through the marsh …

.

.

We climbed back in the ungodly expensive rental behemoth…

.

.

Of which my husband had become entirely too enamored.

It was late afternoon of our last day of vacation so we took a leisurely drive around Edisto Island and enjoyed some of its quirks.

.

.

No one knows who erected this odd marsh angel but apparently she changes with the seasons and has become a local favorite.

.

.

This is the only acceptable answer to the question what do I do with dead palm tree stumps?

Hula girls, that’s what.

.

.

We drove past this native while on the main beach road.

.

.

It was a wonderful sight so I made my husband turn around and circle by him twice to ensure decent photos.

.

.

A poo covered jacket seems a small price to pay for such a beautiful friend.

.

.

This bottle display is an old Gullah way of driving out evil spirits. They have to be blue, but sorry… for the life of me I don’t remember why. The Clemson tiger paw is a modern addition.

.

.

Remember the herd of tiny deer we saw every night? I wondered where they could possibly live in so busy an area…

.

.

The answer was our resort’s golf course.

.

.

Where they clearly didn’t read the sign.

😉

  3. Oh those blue bottle trees, love them. The blue is because apparently blue attracts evils spirits and traps them in the bottles. I just love the color to be honest. I’m not sure I’d be okay with a poo covered jacket, but the friend looks like he could care less….lol.

  4. My porch has a haint blue ceiling ant it would seem to be effective. I don’t believe in evil spirits but I do believe in wasps and I haven’t seen one on the porch in quite some time. Cathy has been campaigning for a bottle tree and the push will begin in earnest when she gets a look at your pics.
