Have T@b will travel: North Carolina Potpourri!

One of things about travelling the country with limited time and budget is you have to come to accept that you can't see everything. We had to blow through a few states due to this crazy polar vortex, and now that we are on way back north the time constraints are nipping at our tail lights. So here we are in North Carolina, having boogied through South Carolina and only getting a small taste of Georgia, we study the map deciding on the next stop. Such is life, we are still grateful for this amazing adventure! We have spent the last week near the small historic town of Selma, NC. Exploring a few nearby towns, their monuments, antique shops, graveyards, walking trails, and parks. Thankfully the weather has cooperated so far, most days are sunny and warm, but the nights are cold and windy. Which gives us no guilt when the 3 of us snuggle up and throw in a DVD! Thank you Redbox!

A day at Clemmons Educational State Forest

Here we are on the "Talking Tree Trail". Mango listens intently to the educational audio recordings along the way.

Below are photos from a day on the Neuse River Walk in Smithfield, NC. A 3 mile greenway that runs along the river, and through the historic Smithfield Town Commons.

Behind Graham are the old supports for the Neuse River bridge. It was a 2 lane covered bridge and was replaced in 1907. Unfortunately I can't find more information on it's age or history.
