Carolina Poet, Photo's and Notes: carolina blue sky.... it's a southern thing

Welcome

Welcome to my blog...as a beginner i am enjoying what all i can do, explore, create, and share.....born and raised and based in the greatest state... North Carolina..I love we have it all... the mountains, the piedmont, the sand hills and the coast. I love we have the four seasons...and I try and enjoy each with gusto...

One of my favorite carolina times is I love to ride my bike ...love the morning ride and talking about what it means...and have been doing so so so early... mostly leaving by 6 :30 am...most morning....otherwise..I do love sharing my photo's...enjoy!!!

Another one of my most favorite carolina times is I also love to travel...well actually exploring this great state.... mostly spur of the moment and trying out new experiences such as foods, wines, friendships, cultures, music, whether I'm in new cities, towns, villages, remote areas, or major cities, small towns ...I call them "drive arounds"....

In my 52 years have also traveled the USA and visited or vacationed in 39 of the states including Alaska and Hawaii. In 2000 I marked the millinium for the kids by buying a RV and traveling for 35 days 19 states and 8900 miles. We started in Wilmington NC and went east to St. Louis and then followed the Lewis and Clark trail and then north to Puguet Sound down the west coast all the way to Barstow CA and then back to NC via Grand Canyon and all point inbetween...

I have traveled to Canada, Mexico, Bermuda, Bahamas, Puerto Rico, the UK, Scotland, Ireland, England, Holland, Korea, Taiwan, Japan, Indonesia, Spain, Italy, and still planning...

I also love to just take notes as i call them .... thus these written blogs...mostly to pass on to my kids at some point...my life stories and my lessons as well as thoughts, poems, and just plain notes...
