One thing I love about living in Winston-Salem is that there are always new things to discover.  Image Credit: https://www.theresidencyreview.com/sawtooth-school-for-visual-arts
Well, we haven't received any mail in 10 days, and Amazon showed up for the first time in as long just yesterday.  Yesterday Cheri asked me what day would be good to go to Madison, NC. I said today would be great. We are, after all, retired.  Mark and I went to see the exhibit "Camel City: Tobacco & Transformation, 1875-1964" at the Reynolda House Museum & Gardens a couple of weeks ago.   First of all, we're not talking about the Salem of witches fame. That one is in Massachusetts.  Outside of not-really musing about moving back to San Francisco, Mark and I never envisioned moving to a bigger city/area when we retired.  Over time I have come to realize that Mark and I see - and blog about - the places that we visit very differently.  All the houses on our block set out Luminaries’ along the road; very peaceful looking, and inspirational.  Every year the Chapel Hill and Hillsborough, North Carolina artists' guild has an artists' open studio tour.  In case what's a curiosity to me isn't to you, I've added some beautiful flowers to pull you into this last post about the Raleigh Arboretum!  Our area received anywhere from 5-9" of rain, being on the edge of Tropical Storm Debbie. I have been doing a fair amount of this over the past week:  For a while, Mark and I would take bets on whether houses we saw as we drove past were currently occupied.  I felt like I was in Moss Landing, CA today, though you could be forgiven if you thought it was France: 
Shortly after we moved to North Carolina two years ago, Mark and I headed to Greensboro, the next bigger town about 25 miles away, to a bi-annual "vintage" fair.  |
