We were walking down Main Street, it was late and most businesses were closed. There was a guitar duo playing and we could hear the music outside. With no other place to go and a nice ambiance inside Highroads, we went in.
We browsed and walked around the shop for a bit and finally made up our mind to sit down and have a drink. I really like live music, actually, I like "good" live music, and the duo was fantastic. I grabbed a Big Foot barley wine, very rare, and sipped on it. We also had wine at the table. Since it was late, we only enjoyed a few songs but were invited to stay as long as we wanted since they were preparing for a big event the next day. And here is where that Southern hospitality kicked in. We got the history of the town, the business, where to go, what to see and very important: what to avoid.
We left with some gifts, and came back the next day. Plus, we saw the musicians again and got awesome tips. This is definitely a great place to hang. read more
