There is a quaint body of water called Goose Creek, which branches off the Cooper River and meanders north and west. A small fragment of the creek caresses the southern border of the city that bears its name, but the vast majority of the creek veers off stubbornly into Hanahan, where it drains into the Goose Creek Reservoir. Calling the city 'Goose Creek' is akin to suggesting that Charleston should be dubbed 'Atlantic Ocean' merely because it borders that vast expanse of water. The peculiar contours of the City of Goose Creek look as if Salvador Dali drew them for one of his surrealist paintings.
