We had the opportunity to attend a McDowall Family Reunion at St. Pauley’s Island in South Carolina in June, 2011. The garden was started in the early 20th century on the foundations of a rice plantation from the 19th century, by a husband and wife artist couple – the Hungtingon’s. These photos concentrate on a handful of sculpture, but the estate is filled with stately oak trees, hydrangeas, intimate garden spaces, and several indoor galleries. If in the Myrtle Beach area or further south, this is a must see.

This cool sculpture is along the highway in West Texas. The artist did a few other pieces around town as well, each equally nice.
