Mepkin Abbey - Trappist Monastery, Moncks Corner, South Carolina

;I THOUGHT I WOULD SHOW A FEW OF THE BEAUTIFUL TREES AT MEPKIN ABBEY--THIS IS ABOUT AN HOURS DRIVE FROM CHARLESTON, SC

THE GARDENS AT THE ABBEY ARE A TRANQUIL PLACE TO VISIT. CHECK THEIR SITE TO SEE WHEN HOURS ARE FOR VISITS--THERE IS A GIFT SHOP AS WELL.
