    I have a couple of curve balls, first I'm rolling into town in my RV, so downtown parking can be a challenge. I saw a parking garage on Mary St. by the visitor's center that states it's high enough for it. Know of any other places/ parking lots?

    There are plenty of commercial open parking lots in town.  I can probably also come up with a visitor residential parking pass for you so you can park anywhere south of Broad.

    Also going to have the 4 legged co-pilot with us, so he'll probably go with us for the downtown walk, so I'll need to find a dog friendly tavern for lunch.

    You might want to check out The Barrel, outdoor place towards Folly Beach where the dogs can run around.

    Halls chophouse

    While Halls is awesome and we highly recommend it, at the end of the day it's a classic steakhouse and you can get that anywhere.  This is where they have the gospel brunch.

    For a true Charleston dining experience, these are our favorites:

    • Magnolias
    • Anson
    • High Cotton (owned by Halls)
    • SNOB (owned by Halls)
    • Fig (Mike Lata - very hard to get resy)
    • The Ordinary (also Mike Lata)
    • Hank's Seafood
    • Bowens Island (classic "fish camp")
    • Rodney Scott's barbecue (James Beard winner)
    • Home Team barbecue (3 locations)
    • Lenoir (Vivan Howard)
    • Rutledge Cab (Bill Murray - good for burgers)
    • Leon's
    • Little Jack's Tavern

    The annual study, which tracks the company’s exclusive data for customers’ state-to-state migration patterns, determined Vermont as the state with the highest percentage of inbound migration (74%) with United Van Lines. Topping the list of outbound locations was New Jersey (71%), which has held the spot for the past four years.

    South Dakota (69%), South Carolina (63%), West Virginia (63%) and Florida (62%) were also revealed as the top inbound states for 2021. Meanwhile, states like Illinois (67%), New York (63%), Connecticut (60%) and California (59%), which have regularly appeared on the top outbound list in recent years, again ranked among states with the largest exoduses.
