While we were in North Carolina, we really wanted to go to the JAARS headquarters. JAARS is an acronym for Jungle Aviation and Radio Services, and JAARS is affiliated with Wycliffe Bible Translators, who we visited while we were in Orlando (if you haven’t read about our wonderful Wycliffe experience, you can go to that […]

After our wonderful 2 weeks near Winston-Salem, it was time to start heading back west. We had a few stops to make on our way out of the state, so we didn’t drive far the first day- only about 2 hours. We pulled into a Walmart to park the rig while we ran up to […]

Guilford Courthouse National Battlefield, Greensboro, NC…
Just up the road from the Greensboro Science Center, is the Guilford Courthouse National Battlefield; the location of a Revolutionary War battle on March 15, 1781. While there is nothing left of the small courthouse that once stood on the grounds, the acreage where a decisive battle between the British and the Americans once raged […]
Fun at the Greensboro Children’s Museum…
We’ve been enjoying our stay in North Carolina very much! Now that the ice has melted, the kids and I have been getting out and about while the others have been volunteering with ice storm cleanup. I’ve been trying to get the work crew to bring me home some decent pictures to post, but they’ve […]
The Greensboro Historical Museum, NC…
After wrapping up our visit to Georgia, we pulled out last Sunday. We overnighted in Charlotte; we tried to park in the Bass Pro Shops parking lot but since this one is part of a mall, we were asked to leave by an external security company (they were super nice about it!). We went […]
