Sesquicentennial Park

The morning walk was through the woods and past a lake with a peaceful scene.

We are staying at Sesquicentennial State Park in Columbia South Carolina.  There was a lot of discussion to remember that sesquicentennial means 150^th anniversary (yeah John!).  Then it was a question of what occurred 150 years ago.  I found this plaque during my morning walk.Turns out the park was built back in 1937 and named in honor of 150 years since the founding of Columbia.
