The
two RV Gypsies enjoyed lots of art
and more in Columbia, SC
April 30, 2022 |
Columbia the capital of South
Carolina and the second-largest city in that state. A small portion
of the city goes into the neighboring Lexington County. Columbia was
the first city in America, and the first capital named for Christopher
Columbus, but was almost named Washington. For more history about Columbia,
South Carolina, go to https://columbiasc.gov/about-columbia/
Note of interest: capital vs capitol - capital refers to the primary
city and is usually the seat of the state government. The building that
houses a government's legislative branch is the capitol.
Remember the "o" refers to a building with a dome, so in all
other cases, use the "a".
