High Point, NC 70 degrees and sunny

Pretty little maple tree

It was another beautiful sunny day for driving and we’ve caught up to the fall color change that Mary was searching for up north. The trees still have some leaves and the further south we drive the more colorful it is. The leaves are shades of  red, orange and golden yellows and the full sunshine intensifies the colors as we drive further south.

We stopped at a couple of visitor centers one in Virginia and one in N. Carolina to see if they had any information on the furniture shopping centers in N. Carolina and I’m glad we did. It looks like there are a few in High Point, which is not where we were originally headed. Boyle’s and Furniture-land South seem to be the recommended places to go to so we changed direction and are now in a Quality Inn for the evening. Tomorrow we’ll check out the furniture places but we were told that we should be prepared for a full day and probably wouldn’t see everything.  Jane (at one of the visitor’s centers) said that Wayne should just drop me off at 8 am and pick me up at 5pm.  Yikes. They can’t be that big can they?  I ordered a pizza for dinner and someone’s knocking at the door. Pizza time…
