We were finally able to go and get our library cards and check it out. The kids section really shines here. They have made cozy and fun spots for kids to come and read, learn, and explore. They have sweet activities to keep them engaged, like a book hunt and a prize at the end. I'm hoping to make this a weekly outing on the weekends for my girls. The adult portion is not as impressive but they still have a decent showcase of different books. I didn't have too much time to look around, but got a few for myself. I'm so glad we have a library so focused on children close to our home. If you have kids and live in or near Randleman, you should check it out.

I did have some trouble finding it (in the parking lot behind Randleman Recycling Center - same street as Richard Petty Museum,) but when I did, what a fantastic place! Very friendly staff and a great selection of books for what it's worth. I wasn't expecting such a vast selection. No, it's no Greensboro Library, but they have lots of computers set up with their catalog system for easy finding. The area is clean and books are organized accurately. Very child friendly, as well. Highly recommended for the readers in Randleman!

If you're anywhere in downtown Pittsboro, you can't help but notice the beautiful old Courthouse…read morebuilding right in the center of their city round-about. The old courthouse now houses the tax offices as well as a small museum that both locals and tourists will find helpful. The museum and first floor of the tax office is open to the public on the first Sunday of every month for downtown's big "First Sunday" festivities. They offer tours and have volunteer guides that are more then happy to show you around. They've done a lovely job giving guests a timeline or not only the courthouse, but also the history of Chatham County: school systems, agriculture, family lineage, etc. With personal testimonies from old diaries interesting artifacts and more, this quick stop will give you a tiny glimpse into the past. I even found my surname up on the list of the 400 traditionally considered "Chatham Families", who would've thought?! Walking into this museum, expect to be a bit bombarded by locals wanting to tell you all about Chatham county, it's Southern hospitality at it's finest and they're proud to tell you something you didn't know. This court house has a lot of history, from fires to the museum installation and uses today. It's free to enter, so why not get a little history lesson when you're in town?! And don't forget to sign the guest book!

According to the plaque mounted on the chair's pedestal, it's officially known as "'The Chair' of…read moreThomasville." The plaque reads: "The chair is an exemplar and inspiration for future generations to emulate and perpetuate the achievements of our time-honored furniture designers and craftsmen . . . The original chair was the creation of the famous American designer Duncan Phyfe. Erected 1950. Thomas Johnson - Del. James Harvey - Sculp." A smaller, newer placard beneath reads: "Local Historic Landmark. Designated by City Council. September 2000. Thomasville Historic Preservation Commission." Locally, it's known as "The Big Chair." It's a huge upholstered chair located in downtown Thomasville, North Carolina. It's a symbol of the city's furniture industry. Thomasville is nicknamed "Chair City," while nearby High Point is known as the "Furniture Capital of the World." I was born and raised in High Point. To this day, any time my parents have out-of-town visitors, my dad loves taking them to see the World's Largest Chest of Drawers in High Point (https://www.yelp.com/biz/worlds-largest-chest-of-drawers-high-point) and The Big Chair in Thomasville. As a kid, I wouldn't bat an eye at these things. I thought they were boring. As I got older, I thought they were corny. However, as I continue to get older, I'm starting to appreciate them a bit more. Now, I think they are fun to show to out-of-towners too. Corny, but fun. I guess I'm turning into my dad. An equivalent roadside attraction where I work now is The Big Chicken in Marietta, Georgia. Online reports say the chair is 30 feet tall, but I think that may be misleading. I think the 30-foot measurement takes into account both the chair and the large stone pedestal upon which it stands. The chair is traditional and ornate in design. It looks like it's made of dark wood, but it's actually constructed of concrete and steel. Visiting the chair is a breeze. There's a large free city parking lot across the street. You can park there and walk over. Landscaping around the chair varies and is constantly changing throughout the seasons. It's generally nice. There's not much to see or do in downtown Thomasville, especially on the weekends when most of the businesses on Main Street are closed. It's a quaint little area though. The intersection is relatively busy and sits next to a pair of railroad tracks. Take a look at the pictures. That's pretty much it.

If they have a downtown or a police department or even a gas station, I couldn't find it. What I did find is the "WHYNOT" sign and that was good enough for me. The name is really the important thing here. According to legend, the townspeople were in a meeting to discuss what they should name their place. Hours and hours of arguing until one resident stood up and got everyone's attention. "Why not this. Why not that. Why not name the town Why Not and let's go home?" And so they did. Welcome to Whynot. If you're looking for the sign, it is 1402 NC-705, Seagrove, NC 27341. There is a church across the street where I briefly parked.

Growing up in High Point, my friends and I knew about Lydia's Bridge at a very young age. It's one…read moreof the Triad's best-known ghost stories. You can Google "Lydia's Bridge" to read the full story, but the short version is: Girl in white dress on the side of the road needs a ride home. Driver picks her up and drives her home. When they reach her home, she's vanished from the car. Driver knocks on the door of the house and an older woman answers. Driver asks about the girl. Older woman turns out to be the girl's mother and explains that the girl, Lydia, died in a car accident. Her ghost repeatedly does this from time to time. (I think I got the story right.) In elementary school, this story creeped me out. Every time my mom would drive us from High Point to Greensboro and back, we'd have to pass by Lydia's Bridge. I always looked at it, curious about the bridge and wondering if I'd ever catch a glimpse of Lydia. In high school, when my friends and I were old enough to drive, we actually drove out to Lydia's Bridge one night. It was pitch-black dark and terrifying. We psyched ourselves out. The address for this Yelp listing, 500 E Main St, puts you at the Yorkshire Yorkleigh Apartments. We pulled into Yorkleigh Ln, found parking, and walked over to Lydia's Bridge. It's not straightforward to get to. Lydia's Bridge isn't actually the bridge over E Main St, but instead another bridge nearby. Technically, it's a culvert. You can only get to it on foot. You have to walk through some wild vegetation to get there. I've uploaded a Google satellite view picture with this review so you can see exactly where the bridge is in relation to the apartment entrance. After much research, it is believed Lydia is actually one Annie L. Jackson who died in a car accident on Jamestown High Point Rd (present-day E Main St) in 1920; coincidentally, 100 years ago from the time I'm writing this. I posted the Greensboro Patriot newspaper front page article about the accident with this review too. You can read more about how this story was dug up on WFMY News 2's website: https://www.wfmynews2.com/article/news/local/lydias-bridge-mystery-solved-famous-ghost-traced-to-real-tragedy-local-family/487001437. A good story to read about Lydia was written by Lisa O'Donnell of the Winston-Salem Journal, published on June 16, 2018: https://www.greensboro.com/news/local_news/ghostly-jamestown-hitchhiker-reveals-herself-to-researchers/article_8f0d6ce6-71d2-11e8-920f-7f045391a3c2.html.
