North Carolina Fodorites......
How about a Fodorites get-together around Raleigh/Chapel Hill/Durham sometime after the holidays? Would anybody else be interested? I think there's a few Carolinians on this board, and maybe we might get a few Fodorites from Virginia and South Carolina........ Just a thought! :-)

Gee, bonniebroad, I sure wish I could be in the nighborhood-we have a place at Kerr Lake, and come down once in awhile- I think your idea sounds like fun. Too bad I'm chained to my job up here in NY right now, or I'd jump in a minute! Hope you get some responses and have a good time!
I always miss that beautiful red dirt!!! |
bonniebroad, I like your idea. I am new in this area and would like to meet other fodorites. My husband and I were thinking about going to Raleigh to the Museum of Art to see Picasso and Matisse exhibit so we could do that at the same time. My husband would like to come too.
|
Hey, bonnie, how about if we Floridians made a special trip to NC so we can party in our 2nd favorite state :-d
|
You come right on up, Tandoori Girl!!! When you start eating our Pork BBQ and Banana Pudding, you won't want to go home!!! :-d (I know, I know........ you've got all that wonderful seafood and Key Lime Pie!) :p
|
Sognatrice, maybe we'll be getting together when you happen to be home......... keep an eye on the Board! :-) (About our beautiful red dirt..... my dog LOVES it, too, especially bringing it in on the rugs!!! >:o )
Wildflower, welcome to the area. Hope you will be very happy here. Would be delighted to meet you & your husband ....... Let's hope this works out! :-) |
What's that funky cake pie thing. Was it chess pie? What's that? I liked it ((Y)) Maybe it wasn't chess pie...
|
I guess I should tell you I had it in Cashiers. That might help. Some local favorite there.
|
TG, I wonder if you had ShooFly Pie??? That's actually Amish from Pennsylvania, but has been "transported" here in some areas. The cakey part is almost ginger-bready, then a molasses bottom, with wonderful crumbs on top??? We do have yummy chess pies, but there's nothing cakey about them???? :?
|
Hi bonnie!
Count me in. I'd love to meet up with you and some of the other posters. Come on up TG! :) (Anyone else is certainly welcome too.) I think it would be neat to organize a fodorite's cruise. Wouldn't THAT be fun? |
bonniebroad...sounds like a good idea.I live north of Raleigh. Have never met a Fodorite!
|
I would probably be interested in attending. The closer to Durham/Chapel Hill the better unless on the weekend.
|
I might be able to. I'm in Charlotte though.
|
Hi bonniebroad...I'm planning a move right now, but would be interested in meeting some Fodorites as I won't know a soul in the state!!
|
Why don't we have one in Charleston for the NC, SC, GA, and Florida fodorites?
|
bb,
Come on. Admit it! You just wanna show off your new hot self! ;) Speaking of which, I still have to drop about 30# before T'giving for the Fodor's Yountville GTG and about 10# more to fit in my Speedos for Kauai. :'( |
Kal, don't let the news get out that you plan to wear a Speedo on Kauai!!! =-o All the ladies on this board will plan trips at the same time and mob the island ... :-d
|
As long as it's not really cold and I don't put it on backwards....again.
#-O |
I think a get-together sounds great! This website has been a lifesaver for me on many trips!
|
Hey again guys...... would those of you expressing interest like to tell me where you live (I'm in Raleigh), then I can better judge the most convenient meeting place. I think probably Raleigh will be the best for the majority but I'd like to hear where everybody is coming from, just in case. (I'm thinking about Ri-Ra Irish Pub or Greenshield's Pub in the City Market. Whaddya think, guys? ;;) ) I believe we can come up with quite a little group!!! (Let me know your ideas for a meeting place, if you have any!)
Thanks! :-) |
