About Me

I moved to Charleston back in 2002. I love it so much, I bought a house here in 2003 with my sister Molly. I am currently working at Oak Plantation Campground, and I love it SO much!!! For fun I love to go out with my friends, shop, go to yard sales, camp, read, travel, play with my pets, listen to music, go to concerts, swim, make crafts/jewelry, and go to the beach to work on my tan!! I would like to hear from old friends & make some new ones in the process, please feel free to contact me, don't be shy!!
