As I talked about in my previous blog post we left the USS York town and went out to Fort Sumter since my wife and I have never been out there.  The ride out there was a little breezy but it was so beautiful out. Once we got tied to the dock and let all the cub scouts get off the boat we departed and walked passed them as they were gathering for the what to do and not do leature.  The fort was simply amazing and I love the history behind it and all the cannons that they have in place.  It would have really been cool if one of the cannons could be restored in a non-firing but movable and able to use the elevation on it.  Pictures of the fort can be found here

Yet again the trip was totally worth while and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Charleston, SC.  Find out a little bit of history while in town, never hurts to know the past!!! For more information on the fort you can visit its website here
