Description
“Let us cross over the river, and rest in the shade of the trees.”
~ Stonewall Jackson
~ 1824-1863
The last words of Thomas Jonathan “Stonewall” Jackson, who served as a Confederate general (1861-1863) during the Civil War, and became arguably the best-known Confederate commander after General Robert E. Lee. Jackson played a prominent role in nearly all military engagements in the Eastern Theater of the war until his death, and had an important part in winning many significant battles.
As Old Glory billows in the autumn breeze, my view from the shoreline of the May River at Bluffton Oyster Factory Park, Old Town Bluffton, South Carolina, paints a postcard of the beauty of a southern fall in the Lowcountry on a late October afternoon
Bluffton is situated on the north bluff of the May River, giving the Beaufort County town its name. The river winds through the Old Town area of Bluffton, which locals call “the last true coastal village of the South.”

Such a perfect view of the South, although it stirs memories for me of the Chesapeake Bay, quite similar. Well done.
