You know you’ve seen this green ironwork somewhere in Charleston, but where. Look closely at the photo for clues (maybe in the background). Photo by Michael Kaynard, Kaynard Photography.
Hats off to Fred Rosenberg of Daniel Island who knew that the last issue’s Mystery Photo was not a scene from Kansas, but a barn on S.C. Highway 165 on Yonge’s Island near Meggett in southern Charleston County. He wins a pair of tickets to Magnolia Plantation and Gardens. Congratulations too to the only other person who got it right — Chip Davis of Charleston, whose parents live near the barn.

Charleston Strong
Cadets at The Citadel spurred the painting of red and blue doves along their new Charleston Strong mural on Rutledge Avenue near Grove Street at the old College Park ballpark. Mayor Joe Riley and state Sen. Marlon Kimpson stenciled in the first doves in a public ceremony. The mural, on which hundreds of people throughout the community painted doves, commemorates the victims of the Emanuel AME Church shootings and serves as a symbol of how the city united following the tragedy.
