Raleigh, North Carolina

I thought that Raleigh was a suggestion from my friend Emily, who named her dog after the city. Apparently, she had suggested Savannah, and Raleigh was a misinterpretation. I'm still not convinced, but she gets the benefit of the doubt. It wasn't a huge decision to go to Raleigh because it was pretty much on the way to Charlotte, but man, what a nothing town. I thought it was a city from a far, but it turns out that those were just apartment buildings that were like 12 stories high. I didn't even get out of my car. Maybe I missed what made this town something worth visiting, but from everything I could see, Raleigh wasn't worth a moment of my time. Since I was already there, I did get out of my car for some good ol' BBQ with an educational quote on the back of my cajun french fries.


After that tidbit of wisdom, I ventured on to Charlotte.
