Going to Carolina

I am heading off for a most needed and highly anticipated adventure …

…to the beautiful state of North Carolina

So~in an effort to excite myself even more than I am already~

I thought that I would post some lovely and inspiring Carolina photographs.

My sons' grandmother recently moved to Hillsborough, NC 

from Stamford, CT

{I was a tiny bit disappointed when I first heard that they were moving because

I loved their home in Connecticut and I had visions of my sons experiencing the charm of 

summers in New England}

Although I have been to North Carolina before,

this will be the first time that I will see their new home.

It is located in a historic district known to be inhabited by authors and artists~

{it already sounds charming doesn't it?}

How could I have doubted that they would choose anyplace other 

than an equally charming and delightful southern town?

While my children enjoy the company of their California cousins

{they are having a mini family reunion}

I will be galavanting around looking for local home and garden tours and quaint

antique shops~taking photographs of southern architecture, landscapes and people~

savoring some Southern fried chicken and grazing on grits ;-)  

I am certain that I will take in one -mmm... maybe two-of those sight-seeing 

bus trips-I am kind of cheesy that way ;-)

I will tell you all about it when I return.

Happy Adventures!
