Hi Nicholas

Yes it is. The whole Charleston and Lowcouuntry area is filled with fun, historical and beautiful places.

Make sure to visit the Fire Museum in North Charleston (not too far away from the plantation). It’s free admission for kids ($6 for adults) and is really terrific.

I have been wanting to go since we moved here. Our little one is two and we are not sure if he would enjoy it yet. I think we will go this spring for sure. Thanks for the great information and beautiful pictures.

Looks like a perfect kid activity. We moved to the area almost a year ago and haven’t had the time to go. Family is coming soon… Good excuse for a visit.

Lake Jocassee is a doggie paradise but pets are not permitted in the cabins at the State Park. Maplecrest at Lake Jocassee is “Pet Friendly” to well behaved dogs and is just 1 mile from the beach and boat ramp at Devils fork Stste Park.

Mr. Nowakowski

Thank you for your comments. I concur with your findings, there should be more done both at the site and around town to bring the proper awareness and deserved respect to these heroic airmen.

Hopefully someone in the community will listen and do something about it.

Thank you!
Elena

was at the memorial and enjoyed it .
The only problem is, there is no U. S. Flag flying to
honor these great men . No lights to illuminate that flag or the monument at night. these men were and are great fighter pilots and should have these things.
My wife and I did honor and respect the memorial very
much. Thanks for honoring these American heroes.
a very worth wile stop off the beaten path of I-95.

Thanks,
Kevin Nowakowski

P.S. Thank you Red Tail Angels for the lives you
saved
