Halloween in Charleston

We started our evening at our neighbor's home for a lovely dinner.  


























Mark's mustache didn't want to stick to his face so he came up with a new look.

Burn a wine cork...


... and rub it into facial hair for a deep, dark look.





Next, we were greeted by the dancing bunny at our dental school party...




... and we met up with a gum ball machine, a couple of cops, a dragon, a jailbird, and a fish.




We also found the Butcher and Bee.
(a restaurant downtown in Charleston)




The cutest little nerds arrived...








On our ride home, we drove up King Street only to find one of the busiest nights I have ever seen here in Charleston.  Hoards of people lined the sidewalks just trying to get into some of the bars.  














At a stop light we were frightened by Batman.  I didn't think Batman was supposed to be scary.  





We finished our night with a quiet seat at our favorite wine bar, Bin 152.

Salt

Sullivan's Island is the place to go for date night.  I never take for granted the fact that we live so close to the beach.  Dinner and a sunset walk along the water, that's an evening that will remind you how great your life is here in Charleston.

Everyone gravitates toward Poe's Tavern but there are so many great restaurants on Sulli's Island.  Have you tried Salt?







You must order the blue crab beignets, they were so incredibly delicious...





We shared the whole fried vermillion snapper...





I'm not sure what I caught the man in the GIF saying but pretty sure he is agreeing with me that there are great restaurants all over Sulli's.  I got that by his hand gestures...







After dinner head out for a walk and watch the sun slowly sink and the moon start to shine.
