I got to REALLY like Charleston.


Me, too. Navy sent me here in 1966. I moved away 4 times to various parts
of the planet, including Tehran, Iran, but always gravitated back to
Charleston.

Our little group of sailors populate a good part of J-dock at City marina
on the way to the North Entrance. They all moved from Ashley when it was
condo-ized, unwilling to put up $120K for a locker just to get dock space
where the condo operator could set regime fees and do as he pleases.

It looks cheap at Ashley until you add in the monthly principal and
interest on $120K for 15 years....
