Cori had to travel to Asheboro, NC to visit a rubber facility, so David went along for the ride and we made a mini-roadtrip out of it. Asheboro is located about an hour away from Chapel Hill and Durham, NC. If you are a fan of college athletics, then you know that Chapel Hill is the home of the University of North Carolina while Durham is where Duke University is located. The college basketball rivalry between UNC and Duke is probably one of the greatest in the country and the two campuses are situated about 9 miles apart from each other (known as Tobacco Road). We took some time to walk around both campuses and also saw the basketball arenas at each school. We also walked through a church on Duke's campus which was amazing! We finished the night with some steak, ribs, and a cold beer at Top of the Hill Restaurant and Brewery in Chapel Hill.

We are also happy to have Cori's sister Cara staying with us for a few months this summer. She is working as an Intern at Peculiar Productions which is a marketing firm here in Greenville. We have had a good time showing her around Greenville and the Upstate. We took a drive last Sunday to see a Revolutionary War Battlefield near Cowpens, SC and also found an awesome strawberry and peach farm where we were able to buy some fresh strawberries and homeade icecream! Yum! We are looking forward to Memorial Day weekend and our trip to Atlanta, GA to play tourists and celebrate Cara's 21st birthday! Check back soon for some pics and an update on our trip.
