The State House in Columbia

The sisters decided to fly to Columbia, the state capital of South Carolina. The Capitol is a grand building with 22 solid blue-granite columns (the largest in the United States) lining the porticos. Construction of the building began in 1854 but took many years to complete. In fact, at the end of the Civil War, when General Sherman was burning a path to the sea, this building was spared as it was still unfinished. Ms. Nastee caused a ruckus so a front end loader was used to get her off the premises! See if you can find her.
