First Little Road Trip Since Pandemic 2021

Last Thursday, Amy and I took a road trip to meet Jane.  Amy and Jane had figured out a halfway point (between Flat Rock and Hillsborough) in Charlotte, NC.  I asked off from work and invited myself so I could help drive.

Amy had a bunch of homemade ice cream from Broken Spoke Farm that she had packed up and off we went.

I had forgotten how much fun it is to take a road trip!!! The weather was beautiful but HOT HOT HOT ~ a lucious 99 degrees!


This is where we went ~ Camp North Beach.  It was an Army supply depot built in 1941 ~ all brick, all one story on both sides of an unused train track.  There is a lot of renovation going on in some of the buildings ~ it was great.  We selected lunch from the 4 spots all along the right.  These were sort of like built in food trucks ~ you selected and picked up and then ate outside.  Since we went on a Thursday, there was lots of shady places to eat.  Very nice.

Amy's happy place



As we got into our cars, I took the photo of the Charlotte skyline.  Amy loaded up Jane's car and we said our goodbye's.

Amy and I then took off to the IKEA so we could pick up a table that our neighbor Rhonda had ordered.  The IKEA was very convienently located on the way home a couple of miles down the road.  So easy.

Everyone got home safely AND the ice cream made it!!!!!!!!

Love,

Leslie
