Over 4,000 years old, the barrier islands of South
Carolinaas Lowcountry are ever-changing and hauntingly beautiful. Hunting Islandas importance to
Beaufort and the nation has always stemmed from its use as a recreational area. From the rice planters, who took their families here on week-long excursions to hunt and fish, to present-day naturalists, campers, and beachgoers, Hunting Islandas unique ecology, terrain, and wildlife have always been enjoyed and valued on an international level. Through the eyes of photographers a century ago,
the story of the island unfolds. Readers visit early planters, and meet shrimpers who spread their nets in the shoaled waters surrounding the island. We travel though marshes brimming with life and enjoy moments of solitude along quiet sandy beaches.

April 18th, 2009 started out like any other ordinary day, but it would turn out to be anything but ordinary. It was a beautiful spring morning and I woke up around 8:00 like I did every morning to get ready for work. This was supposed to be a short day at work since I was heading to Alabama for our company meeting early the next morning. I would leave work early this day, but unfortunately, not for the reason I had initially planned. Around 12:40, I received a call that I would never forget. This is an account of some of my thoughts, experiences, and reflections that I dealt with during the next eighteen months. This is a memoir for my sister, Susan, and how I dealt with the tragedy of her death.
