EDISTO BEACH — Finding prehistoric fossils and ancient shark teeth is such a common Lowcountry pastime that some tourists weren’t shocked to find bones along the beachfront last week. But Sgt. Laura Rutland of the Colleton County Sheriff’s office said that as the visitors cleared the bones from the mud, it became clear they were human. The coroner believes they are historic human remains, possibly predating the Civil War.
Shuttered military museum to leave Charleston. First, it gives The Citadel mementos of a brave alum.

WEST ASHLEY — At an uninhabited, L-shaped brick building nestled at the back of a residential neighborhood, a row of small, narrow doorways the perfect size for goblins or elves line a wall leading to a fenced yard.

JAMES ISLAND — Visitors could hear the music, laughter, clanging bumper cars and roaring boat engines along with the aroma of fried chicken and seafood floating on the breeze of the mud flats and marshes at Mosquito Beach, located off King Flats Creek on a small island called Sol Legare.

Qatar funds Hamas—openly—&supports Iran so security&intel experts will need to strip down the plane to ensure there’s no piece of tech can be a threat to Pres Trump or eavesdrop on him. Extremely expensive, not foolproof. A posh 1st class cabin on QatarAir may be an easier option
The president considers it a great imposition to ride on Air Force One. Poor thing. It lacks the amenities of an “air palace.” He says he’d be “stupid” to turn it down, which is how he views abiding by the Constitution.
