We visited Boone's Cave State Park on Tuesday. I had never heard of this park, and it was a nice place. It is right alongside the Yadkin River and has some nice hiking/walking trails. And the cave was quite interesting. If I could post the video we made there, you would be thoroughly impressed...NOT. But it's something for the grandkids. What can I say?
When we left home Larry was all prepared to go to Childress Winery for lunch and an afternoon in the vineyard. Old men and their fantasies. Anyway, we left the park and headed to Childress and, once again, thanks to the vagaries of the GPS, we wound up going into the town of Lexington before we got to Childress. I think if you look at a map, this isn't possible without an boat or airplane or something. But dagnabbit, we did it. When Suzie loud mouth spoke up and said, "Gee, will you look at that. We're in Lexington.", his mouth started watering. Needless to say, it was North Carolina's best BBQ for lunch. Hey, fine by me. BBQ doesn't make me nearly as sleepy.
When your our age and you see a new place and have BBQ for lunch, it's a really good day.
Question of the Day: Did Daniel Boone ever live in Davie County?
PS. Check out my facebook page for the cave video and some pics from Lexington. Who knew I could be reproduced in plastic?
