TANGLEWOOD COUNTY PARK, CLEMMONS, NORTH CAROLINA

IT WAS ONLY 115 MILES TO CLEMMONS, NORTH CAROLINA, WE GOT THERE EARLY IN THE DAY AND GOT SET UP. CLEMMONS IS A SUBURB OF WINSTON-SALEM.  

 

WE WERE IN THE MOUNTAINS NOW!! VERY BEAUTIFUL SCENERY!

LOTS OF BEAUTIFUL SHADE TREES! A VERY BEAUTIFUL PARK AND NOT VERY CROWDED! WE SAW THESE DEER THE FIRST DAY.

THERE ARE  BEAUTIFUL WALKING PATHS....I STARTED WALKING AGAIN

THE NEXT DAY WE DROVE TO WINSTON-SALEM.

IT WAS ONLY 12 MILES FROM THE RV PARK.

WE HAD LUNCH AT OLIVE GARDEN, ON THE TABLES WERE THESE LITTLE COMPUTERS.

YOU CAN DO EVERYTHING ON THESE,......ORDER,........ PAY, REALLY COOL!!

IT EVEN  PRINTS YOUR RECEIPT!!
THEN  WE WENT TO BEST BUY AND BOUGHT US A NEW DELL LAPTOP.

IT IS THE ONE THAT WE LOOKED AT IN RALEIGH. WE WEREN'T ABLE TO ORDER IT DIRECTLY FROM DELL.  WE BROUGHT IN OUR" BLACK SCREEN"  LAPTOP AND THEY TRANSFERRED MOST OF MY "STUFF" TO MY NEW LAPTOP.  THEY PUT A RUSH ON IT SO  WE COULD PICK IT UP MONDAY. I WAS EXCITED, BUT APPREHENSIVE AT THE SAME TIME!  THIS COMPUTER HAS WINDOWS 8, WHICH I HAVE NEVER USED.   I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO HAVING A LAPTOP AGAIN, EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE MY I PHONE AND A TABLET, THERE IS ONLY SO MUCH YOU CAN DO WITH THEM.

ON SATURDAY, MORNING  WE DROVE TO OLD SALEM TO A FARMER'S MARKET, WE WERE OUT OF VEGETABLES!

WE FOUND A PARKING PLACE...IT WAS JUST A SHORT WALK.

LOTS OF VENDORS!!

OLD SALEM IS RIGHT BEHIND THE FARMER'S MARKET, SO WE JUST STARTED WALKING.

BEAUTIFUL OLD BUILDING WITH LITTLE SHOPS......

WE FOUND THE LOCAL BAKERY.

AND THE BAKERS........

WE BOUGHT CINNAMON BREAD.....IT SMELLED SOOOOO GOOD!!

WE JUST KEPT WALKING ENJOYING THE OLD STREETS AND BUILDINGS.

WE FINALLY CAME TO THE OLD  TAVERN.....

LOOKED AT THE MENU AND DECIDED WE WEREN'T HUNGRY ENOUGH TO EAT.

LOVED THESE OLD  FENCES!! 

IT WAS UNDER 90 DEGREES  HERE TODAY, THE FIRST DAY IN 14 DAYS, SO IT HAS BEEN HOT HERE TOO! THE HUMIDITY ISN'T AS BAD THOUGH. WE STOPPED AT THE GROCERY STORE BEFORE HEADING HOME. WE HAD GOTTEN A CARD TO SHOP HERE.

NEVER HEARD OF THIS CHAIN GROCERY STORE. WE HAD TO BE REALLY CAREFUL WHAT WE BOUGHT NOW, THE REFRIGERATOR IS RUNNING  IN THE 50 DEGREE RANGE DARRELL WAS IN CONTACT WITH DOMETIC, THE BRAND NAME OF OUR REFRIGERATOR AND FOUND OUT THE COOLING UNIT IS UNDER WARRANTY FOR ONE YEAR, NOT TWO, AS WE WERE ORIGINALLY TOLD. 

BEST BUY CALLED SUNDAY......THE COMPUTER IS READY!

 I SPENT THE NEXT FEW DAYS WORKING ON THE COMPUTER.

 WE LEFT FOR WAYNESVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA JULY 2,  STILL HIGHER UP IN THE MOUNTAINS. WE WOULD SPEND THE FOURTH OF JULY HERE.
