Participating artists have created an art gallery on wheels, with imaginative designs that include imagery of riders on the bus, historic views of Raleigh, whimsical dinosaurs, robots and monsters, and a typographic portrayal of Sir Walter Raleigh.
On the way out of the fairgrounds we saw these little guys playing outside the pond. Stopped long enough to grab a few shots. I don’t think the mother geese (father geese?) were too thrilled about it but it made for some reasonably good pictures.
The Got to be NC Festival celebrates all things North Carolina and what is more North Carolina than antique tractors. Well – I can think of a few things but the tractors were pretty awesome. With rides, concessions and a overwhelming sampling of North Carolina made products this event is becoming a mini-fair in the spring. Check it out today and tomorrow if you can and don’t miss your chance to win the antique Ford tractor to the right. I’m [...]
Losing daylight fast we went over to Carter-Finley for a few quick shots around the stadium and the massive statue outside. We’ll be back this fall for some game action but till this is as close as you can get to the Pack.
The entrance to the Neuse River Trail at Anderson Point Park officially opened last month and just a short drive from the house it is a great place to go for a bike ride. Friday night we rode to the trail about 9 miles round-trip.
What did you do Saturday morning? Probably didn’t hike over six miles in your local state park following orange squares on trees like ET followed Reese’s Pieces with much less peanut butter. Yes – hiking will make you hungry.

Our Dallas correspondent sent these pictures of the first look at the American Airlines new look. Click here to learn more about the updates. I think the new logo looks really cool and like how clean it looks. I’m sure we’ll have more in the weeks to come but this is the first look at the redesign.
We happened to be downtown this morning and caught this – the supposed Coronation of McCrory’s Puppet Master: Welcome Shadow Governor Art Pope or some guy in a crudely created Art Pope mask mumbling something. At the time I wasn’t exactly sure what was going on and just snapped a picture as I walked by. When I sat down and looked at the picture later I started putting pieces together and with a little Google-fu found this Facebook event. Not [...]
The Advent Calendar is complete and it didn’t take long for the entire scene to turn into a battle. This is what happens when good bricks go bad. That and Jar-Jar had it coming.
And on Christmas Eve the Star Wars Lego Advent Calendar comes to its grand finale with one final gift but I’m not sure whether to call him Darth Claus or Santa Maul. It has been a great year and a great Advent Calendar. And with that the little plastic men of the past month wish you all a very Merry Christmas. I’ll leave you with the last code – 9509 and best wishes for you and your family this holiday [...]
