Pursuits, ponderings, and poetry of bringing simpler times to my complicated present. Wednesday, December 14, 2011. Christmas in the South. It's not all prep, though. My husband and I have had the chance here and there to go out and see how South Carolina does Christmas. Especially beautiful was Brookgreen Garden's Night of 1,000 Candles.
