Unique to the United States is the narrow strip of coastal land known as the Lowcountry that runs from Charleston to Savannah with Beaufort right smack dab in the middle. Besides our beautiful towns and countryside, this area is one of the best in the U.S.A. for house parties, especially this time of year. From the tables groaning with food to the festive attire, you won’t find any other place in America (maybe Napa comes close) where people like to give and attend parties and do it as well as they do here. Throw in Southerners’ natural gift for laughter plus an open bar and you are in for a great time! Here are some pics for you from a very lovely and elegant house party hosted by <b>Terry Hussey</b> for the Annual Point Association Christmas Party this past weekend.
