A few photos from my trek north from the Carolina coast to Virginia. Honestly, not a whole lot of sites for visitors, but I get the feeling that it wouldn't be an altogether bad place to hang your hat and have a sweet tea.
One thing I missed out on is the Skyline drive and Shenandoah National Park. A note for next time.

Pullen Park in Raleigh NC. Beautiful day. Lots of folks taking a stroll in the park.

Botanical garden at UNC Chapel Hill. I swear there were flowers, ferns and other plants and things there. But I sort of got lost amongst the pines. I like some of the names of flowers and plants----honeysuckle, bladdernut, doghobble, witch alder, joe-pye-weed, little sweet betsy, goldenrod...

| A view of the James River from Belle Isle in Richmond VA. You can see downtown in the distance. People were out laying out on the rocks in the river, enjoying the day. |

The Pit BBQ in Raleigh NC. Fried chicken, pulled pork, mac n cheese and baked beans. Looks a bit dry in my photo, but it the food was moist and tasty.
