nine thousand acres

The past few days, me and my son wandered around the Brookgreen Gardens, amongst some 9,000 acres of land, with animals (both wild and domestic) and some 1,200 sculptures. No exaggerations needed, 10 bucks will get you in for 7 consecutive days. There is a reason for that, as one would imagine a garden of this stature would need a good week to experience. What fascinated me most are the Huntingtons, who bought this land back in the late 20s. I mean, who in the right pocket of mind would do that? For whom I, on behalf of the American people are grateful to have such a living treasure, tucked away in a small South Carolinian town.


ps. love the cute and functional strollers for children and adults.
