Folly 2025-Part II

 Wednesday


A few of us woke up early to go watch the sunrise on the east end of the island. It's always so beautiful!















Ike and Mom were back at it fishing again today.

























Sunset on the west end :)


















Thursday



Today we went into Charleston for a quick tour around our favorite spots before getting lunch in North Charleston.




























Lunch was at The Glass Onion. The chef worked in some fantastic restaurants in Charleston so we decided to give it a try. Man that was a great decision!



















After lunch the guys went to play golf so Ben and I hung out on the beach and then Mom, Ben, and I went out to dinner.


















Friday


Last day! Ike went fishing again and caught a whopper. We hung out at the beach and got things around to head home on Saturday.


























A guy next to Ike caught this huge shark!








A very nice gentleman helped Ike get this onto the dock. He estimated it weight around 50 pounds! Catch of a lifetime for sure.























Well that wraps up our trip. Another beautiful week in Folly!

Folly 2025-Part I

Saturday

We arrived pretty early since we stayed in Knoxville the night before. Since we were all hungry we snagged some lunch-Ike and I had empanadas and Josh and Dave had pizza.















The island was pretty busy since it was a weekend so we just hung out, unpacked and chilled on the beach for the day. 



















Sunday

We had a beautiful sunrise to start our trip off right :) Then we headed into Charleston for a fancy brunch at Iron Rose.












I had the wild mushroom quiche and we all split this delicious pimento cheese. Overall a fantastic meal!























Tony and Ben took off for Savannah to visit a friend-the rest of us headed to the Citadel to walk around for a bit.





We played on the beach in the afternoon, then Josh and Ike went to a haunted house and Mom, Dave, and I got some dinner.

We had a beautiful sunset in downtown.




Monday




Mom and I were up early for the sunrise. Everyone but Ben and I went golfing and then came back and hung out on the beach!

















Tuesday

Ike and Mom got up super early to fish on the pier. This was definitely a highlight of Ike's trip-they ended up going back several more times to fish. There was a group of guys on a fishing trip there every day and they helped Ike out a ton.














Tony, Dave, and I went for a long walk after checking in on Mom and Ike.































Today was the day for our family pictures on the beach. We've never done professional photos before and man this was super chaotic but the pictures turned out great!


















After we went out so the guys could play this golf game they love.
