Visiting Greenville, South Carolina

We visited an old friend of an old friend in Greenville which is a lovely gracious city in South Carolina.  I understand it has been rated the second most popular city to retire to in the US and I can see why.  It has great facilities - lovely buildings, good retail outlets, numerous theatres and eateries.  We went to see Moliere's The Imaginary Invalid at the Furman University Theatre put on by the drama department - a great performance.  And dinner beforehand with Zermah, our gracious Greenville hostess and a friend,  Moffett.






These dogs were sculpted out of either cream or butter, displayed in the dining room.







A waterfall right in the heart of the city with a lovely park and a bicycle trail running alongside.




There is an amhphitheatre at the bottom of the park and they put on Shakespeare plays there in the summer.






We went for a drive and a picnic to a mountain beauty spot outside Greenville called Caesar's Head.  This photo was taken at Bald Rock lookout.
