Exploring North Carolna

Pink Rhododendron

We've learned that there are more wonderful places to visit here in North Carolina than we've had (or probably will ever have) time to visit. But we're working on trying to get to as many places as possible. This section of the web site is devoted to those places where we've gone without Nessie. This includes some of the many NC State Parks.(If we've paddled a state park, I've linked to the paddling report although the main link is in Paddling North Carolina

Red Cardinal

Many of the places we've visited are not included here yet because those trips were taken before digital. So the photos need to be scanned before they can be posted. And I'm way behind on getting photos scanned. I'm not sure which is worse, keeping up with the new digital photos or trying to organize and scan our old film photos. I never seem to have time for either.

Material on the Piedmont (where we live) and Western NC is sparse right now. That'll change as I get caught up. Plus some of the state parks are either in the Piedmont or the Western part of the state. Also a lot of the material on Western North Carolina is in the Blue Ridge Parkway portion of the website.

So click on a link and visit a few of the many beautiful spots in NC.
