Nobody writes a will for themselves. You write it so the person who loves you most isn't sitting at a kitchen table some evening, guessing what you would have wanted, with a sibling on the phone who remembers it differently. JP Rankin leads estate and trust planning at Smith Debnam in Charleston. An hour of his time now is the whole point.

Opening weekend at the patch is your cue that the season is on. Our Halloween guide to Mount Pleasant is live and updated through October — the patches and farms, trick-or-treat nights, and the parties as venues announce them. Dates come from each venue's own listings, so give them a quick check before you go.

More Mt P between Mondays — we're on Instagram at @mountpleasantscoop with events, gems, and the occasional sunset that doesn't look real.
