HISTORY BENEATH THE TARMAC
Charleston International Airport has a French connection, except it has nothing to do with aviation. The next time you’re rolling luggage through the breezeway between surface and deck parking, stop before crossing the street and turn around.
PEARLS: NOW AND FOREVER
When I was born, my grandmother had one perfect, dainty pearl knotted and placed on a golden chain necklace. By the time I’d receive the gift on my 16th birthday, it would look quite different.
ARIA OF AMBITION
One suspects Mary Gould agreed to present the play Emilie earlier this year because its heroine, a Renaissance woman of substance and wit, mirrored her own versatility and commitment.
A GRAIN OF SAND
On a Sunday morning before church, my young daughter appeared in the doorway of my bedroom. She wore cream tights and a dress full of frills and satin and folds of fabric formed for—I think—the sole purpose of twirling in a circle.
SEEING IS BELIEVING
Waring Vision Institute is a leading center for patients who care about optimizing their ability to see.
UPSCALE RETIREMENT LIVING
Adjacent to the Daniel Island Club and nestled among sweeping oak trees overlooking Beresford Creek, is Wellmore of Daniel Island, the first luxury retirement community in Daniel Island.
CURRENTS
What’s New, What’s Happening, What’s Now
A LEGACY IN THE MAKING
America had its fabled Algonquin Round Table of literary leading lights, England its renowned Bloomsbury Group. Now Charleston seeks a new legacy of its own.
HIGH-SPIRITED
Gorgeous new digs are turning heads at one of Charleston’s latest entrants to the downtown restaurant scene, and the menu is getting its share of attention, too.
CLASSIC TIMEPIECES
Mount Everest. The Oval Office. The Moon. Precision timepieces have been to many of the great places in this world and beyond, and luckily for Charleston, they can also be found at M.P. Demetre Jewelers on King Street.
