The Journey |
Fun day in Chapel Hill. The UNC campus surrounds a green with amazing ancient trees. And we enjoyed the Ackland Museum and some of the art on campus, including a huge ear trumpet. Disappointed that the Morehead Planetarium is only open weekends…
Couldn’t leave NC without barbecue, so Hog Heaven for lunch. We worked off about 10% of that wandering around the Duke Homestead and learning about all things tobacco at the Tobacco Museum. Who knew that the “bullpen” got its name from the huge Durham Bulls sign over the area where the pitchers warmed up? Or that American Tobacco invented baseball cards? (Yesterday we learned that the Bulls name was inspired by the image on the Coleman’s mustard logo.) Over to Raleigh tonight (needed to hit all sides of the triangle) for dinner with Lee and Liza. And celebrate Cecilia’s election as a senior class marshal! Art fans might want to check out Liza’s book, Art of The State - https://uncpress.org/book/9781469661247/art-of-the-state/ And, of course, the news out of NYC… :-)
