Greenville, SC: The Yogurt-Intensive Saturday


We had a pleasant Saturday... A friend came down from Asheville to try a restaurant I heard about on Facebook, and afterward we went for a walk at everyone's favorite toxic swamp.

The day began with disapproval from Timmy the cat.



Lots of plants and a really nice fountain in the middle of everything.















The food:









The restaurant owner also paints, and his paintings are up in the restaurant.



The swamp at Lake Conestee Nature Preserve. To know it is to love it.

































The Conestee Mill that was the reason the lake was constructed in 1892.



Random parking lot chicken.
