Nothing Could Be Finer
I had to be in Chapel Hill to shoot a job (it’s just a short drive through the country from my home), and on the way to lunch, we took a few moments to walk through the arboretum and the main quad at the University of North Carolina. UNC is one of the prettiest university campuses in the country and is especially so in the Spring. I thought the Japanese Maples and the Florida Azaleas were particularly nice. Oh to be an undergrad again!

Shelling Corn
Neighbor Gary McMaster’s grandson Nicholas spends part of his Saturday afternoon shelling seed corn at his Grandpa’s corn crib. Gary raises open-pollinated (non hybrid) corn that he feeds to his mules. He grinds part of it, and saves a portion for seed. Grays Chapel, North Carolina.

Harold Chriscoe Instrument Repair
I was down in southern Randolph County, North Carolina the other day and stopped by the shop of Harold Chriscoe. Harold is known as a banjo repairman, but from what I understand, if you play anything with strings and it breaks, he can fix it.

A Wisteria World
The wisteria is in full bloom early this year and already it’s starting to take over some shooting spots near my home in Grays Chapel, North Carolina.
