Day 02 - Wrightsville Beach, NC to Black Mountain, NC

    

 

 

Monday, March 5, 2007

 

I spent a pleasant evening camped at the Johnnie Mercer Pier at Wrightsville Beach and an equally pleasant morning. The Atlantic Ocean was calm as a mill pond...

 

       

 

       

 

 

 

From Wrightsville Beach to Wilmington...

 

       

 

       

 

       

 

       

 

       

 

 

 

Wilmington to Winston-Salem...

 

       

 

 

Cheerwine is one of the things I miss about North Carolina...

 

 

Winston-Salem... and a nice visit with Christie...

 

       

 

 

From Winston-Salem I continued westward toward the Blue Ridge Mountains...

 

 

I stopped in Taylorsville to visit with Uncle Fred, Aunt Lois, and Cousin Danny... and coffee was served. Uncle Fred, my Father's older brother, can pick "Spanish Fire Bells" like nobody's business! Uncle Fred said that my new Gibson Dove was a "fine machine."

 

 

 

From Taylorsville I drove on to Black Mountain where I put in for the night...
