Christmas light at Stonehenge

-
Got you thinking I went to England didn't' I.... but sorry no, there's a golf course in Tunkhannock, Pa. called Stonehenge Golf Course and this is The Festival of Lights. This is my second year going and let me tell you that the last time was before Christmas and it was over 1 hour of waiting in line to get into the light show. This year I didn't go until after Christmas and the line was so much shorter.  The only negative to waiting until after the holiday is the indoor activities are sparse. Below are some of the desplays, I does say there is no stopping or getting out of the car. We didn't get out of the car but since it was not at all crowded we were able to stop several time without anyone getting upset.







If you haven't gone then make this a must stop next year. Rest of the pictures can be found on travelswithkelli instagram

  DESTINATION AWAITS: Daily I drive by this historic site. Today I decided turn into the site and explore. First mistake was not knowing that the museum was "closed for the season." I'm wondering what season it's closed for? I think maybe winter but since we are into spring I'm not so sure. But entire park is closed on Monday and Tuesday. There is a note to go to Fort Moultrie to get the map which you need to walk the trails in the area. This National Park is free of charge but there is a box for donations.  ADDRESS: 1254 Long Point Road, Mt. Pleasant, SC JUST THE FACTS (BRIEF HISTORY): * 28 acre of his 750 acre plantation known ask Snee Farm *Colonial Charles Pinckney purchased the property in 1754 *This was known as the "country home" to his Charleston residence *Side note: his great aunt Eliza Lucas Pinckney is the reason why Indigo is one of the two top crops of South Carolina during this time. She's an interesting character and I want to know mo

 Destination Awaits:  So after a long day of driving from Mt. Pleasant to Battle of River Bridges to Lake Warren and down to Beaufort. I hit the last of today’s state parks. This is park #9 only 35 more to go. At least I have until April of next year, plenty of time. Address: 2555 sea island parkway, Hunting Island, SC Just the facts (brief History): *5 miles of beach, turtles nesting areas are cordon off for protection *Got its name because it was once used for hunting deer, waterfowl, and raccoon. I didn’t see any of those wild animals but did see an alligator trying to cross the road. *Original lighthouse built in 1859 but destroyed in the civil war.  *rebuilt in 1875. Built with removable cast iron plates so air could be moved and rebuilt if necessary *1889 erosion led to it being dismantled and relocated *remained active until 1933 *currently the lighthouse is closed due to repairs. Tips to know before going: * prepare to spend the day exploring or just relaxing at the beach *see

Day of exploring SC

DESTINATION AWAITS:  Today we hit several SC state Parks (Poinsett and Santee) We hiked one of the trails. Beautiful countryside. It is known as the “mountains of the midlands.” I can see why. It was hilly and definitely we were out of the lowcountry. There was various things to see: a pond where you could swim or canoe. There are a dozen or so different hiking trails of different levels. Went to Buc-cee’s in FLorence. This was not the day to go because it seemed everyone on route 95 south and north also wanted to check out buc-cee’s too. Also in FLorence we stopped at the store Rival A house Divided. Divided between Clemson and UofSC.    ADDRESS: Poinsett State Park, 6660 Poinsett Park Road, Wedgefield, SC                           Santee State Park, 251 State Park Road, Santee, SC                      Buc-CEO’s 3390 N Williston Road, Florence, SC                      Rival, 2320 Trade Ct (next to lowes), Florence, SC JUST THE FACKS (BRIEF HISTORY):   It was a beautiful day to take t
