Wondering what the hell that title means? Did you sleep thru American History or Civics class like I did? Must confess we had never heard of him before today. But if you have your very own National Historic Site, you must have done something.
Do some research and you find he was responsible for the Pinckney Plan,or draught, in creating the constitution. I failed to photograph the bullet points but you can thank him many times.

We chose to avoid over priced "plantation" tours in favor of something else. Very glad as once again we learned things and got more than our moneys worth. The area is known as Patriot's Point. Read more about it HERE We had been on the Lexington down in Corpus Christie before but there was so much more to be seen here. Ended up spending about 4 hours, walking climbing and reading.
They do not call this the low country with out good reason. We are 6 plus miles from the Atlantic ocean. Even so the tidal currents in the creek below are very strong. The grass you see is really giant mud flats.
Depending on the weather we hope to visit a tea plantation tomorrow. Successful or not, our stay here is drawing to a close.
