Cannon Park in downtown Charleston is one of the most unique spots. The park contains only the entrance to the former Charleston Museum. The museum burned down in 1981 with only the steps and the columns remaining. Enjoy a picnic, take a walk, or throw a frisbee for the dogs.

Hi, I’m Dorie.

My name is Dorie Wallace and I love being from the South. Born and raised in Charleston, South Carolina, I appreciate all the wonderful aspects of being a Southerner and want to share that with y’all. And yes, I definitely say “y’all”.
