Mepkin Abbey

Recently I took a little day trip up to Mepkin Abbey.  It was one of the first truly winter-like days, and we took a picnic lunch to eat on a sunny bench on the bluff.  It was a lovely excursion.  

Across the forbidden monastic area, you glimpse views of the Cooper River.

The former plantation sits on the Cooper River, providing the most beautiful view of the sepia Lowcountry river under romantic, moss-draped oak branches, leaning precariously into the water.
