Okay here's the third in the 'old and interesting buildings' series in Bluffton. This one is not so old but definitely interesting! It's the Oyster Company and the beautiful Daddy's Girls shrimp boat docked for the evening.

Here's a bit about the spot...
The Bluffton Oyster Company actually sits on reclaimed land, built up by more than a hundred years of discarded shells from previous shucking operations. The oyster business thrived in early Bluffton and throughout the 1920’s, with five different oyster operations in the area. Now the Bluffton Oyster Company remains the last hand-shucking house in the state of South Carolina.

Now I'd better get out with my camera and capture some more Bluffton images to paint! I think I'd like to do The Store next.
