Why I Live in North Carolina: 101 Dang Good Reasons | Ellen Patrick

I would love to help plan a local meet up!
I‘m in #highpointnc near #Greensboro and an hour from #Charlotte and #Raleigh 🤗 anyone else in the area??? Or surround areas?? Tag a litten if you are not but know one who is!

Slajaunie I was just thinking about this today. I‘m going to do it for my state. 7y

DGRachel I‘m in Charlotte. My list of other Littens that are in the area is at home, though. I know there‘s a bunch between North and South Carolina. 7y

Amabear @DGRachel awesome! Have you guys ever done a meet up before? 7y

DGRachel Yes. @Graciouswarriorprincess hosted on in Raleigh and I hosted one in Charlotte in October of last year. 7y

Amabear @DGRachel great! Let me know if you hear of any others! I‘m somewhat new to Litsy still but I‘d love to meet some fellow littens :) 7y

Graciouswarriorprincess @Amabear Welcome to NC and Litsy! @DGRachel We should do another Litsy meetup. Thoughts?? 7y

Amabear @Graciouswarriorprincess I‘m in for anything ! :) 7y

Graciouswarriorprincess @alleyfam51699 We should plan something. @Amabear 👍🏻😃 7y

alleyfam51699 @Graciouswarriorprincess Definitely! 7y

tracey38 I'm in NC, too. The Raleigh area! Have never been to a meetup but would love to go to one one day. 😊 7y

DGRachel @Graciouswarriorprincess I‘d love to do another, but I don‘t have the mental energy to coordinate one at the moment. Hopefully, I‘ll get used to these new meds soon. 7y

SilversReviews I live in Pittsburgh. 7y

Amabear @Graciouswarriorprincess I‘d be happy to help organize! 7y

Graciouswarriorprincess @DGRachel Understandable and feel better soon. 7y

Graciouswarriorprincess @tracey38 @Amabear @alleyfam51699 Let me get through this month and I will plan something for July. 7y

alleyfam51699 @Graciouswarriorprincess I can help you plan if you need me to. 7y

Graciouswarriorprincess @alleyfam51699 Thank you. I will let you know. 😀 7y

Hey guys! My husband and I are making a trip to Charlotte, North Carolina at the end of August. Any suggestions on breweries, wineries, restaurants, fun things to do? Any great bookstores? We're definitely hitting up a lot of NASCAR stuff so I think we're covered there 😁Thanks!!

tpixie @Graciouswarriorprincess - you're NORTH Carolina, aren't you? 7y

wellreadredhead @The-Flashley Give some suggestions! 7y

Graciouswarriorprincess @tpixie yes but the Raleigh/Cary area which is about two and half hours away. (edited) 7y

tpixie @Graciouswarriorprincess oh well! 7y

Graciouswarriorprincess @tpixie I know. 😞 7y

Aims42 @tpixie and @Graciouswarriorprincess Thanks guys!! We've still got plenty time 😁 7y

Graciouswarriorprincess @Aims42 I can ask friends. I know the Chef and the Farmer restaurant is a driveable distance. I know the bookstores in my area but not there. 7y

Aims42 @Graciouswarriorprincess Thank you! I've requested the travel guides and have looked on Yelp at some places. It's just always fun finding out where the locals go 7y

Graciouswarriorprincess @Aims42 You're welcome. I only moved to NC about eight months ago so I am still learning the state. 7y

the-flashley Amelie's in NoDa. Their desserts are the BOMB. NoDa (North Davidson) is just a cool place in general, and good for breweries and drinks. Hot Taco has really good Mexican food and about a thousand different kinds of tequila, Mac's Speed Shop has fantastic barbecue. If you like roller coasters, then I would definitely check out Carowinds. There's also Concord Mills Mall. I don't really see the appeal in it, but people come specifically to go to it 7y

the-flashley But if you don't do anything else, GO TO AMELIE'S. If you like dessert or coffee, you won't regret it. 7y

Aims42 @The-Flashley oh my gosh, THANK YOU!! I'm adding all your suggestions to my list!! We're staying in the NoDa area at an Airbnb (our first one ever 😬) we are definitely hitting up Amelie's... maybe even daily 😆 ❤️☕️ 7y

the-flashley I would definitely go as often as possible. Lol it's quirky and can be crowded at night, but so worth the wait. NoDa is a cool area. It used to be questionable, but it's improved a TON in the past several years. Now it's where all the hip people go to hang out. 😂 7y

Aims42 @The-Flashley Sounds like a fun place! 40 days to go.... but who's counting 😂 I can't wait! 7y

the-flashley Haha I hope you guys enjoy yourselves! 7y

It's 74* in mid-February, sunny and breezy, so we're all enjoying being #outside. #riotgrams (Don't tell me global warming isn't real! 🍊)

Laura317 It was in the 90s yesterday in Oklahoma according to Jim Cantore! 8y

DGRachel @Laura317 Don't get me wrong - mid70s is my idea of PERFECT weather, but I expected this when I lived in FL, not here in NC. I dread what this means for summer - triple digit heat and no sea breeze, most likely. I'll be homesick for sure. 8y

8little_paws It's mid 50s in Chicago and supposed to get up to 60s by next weekend. Normally this time of year we have at least a foot of snow 8y

Paint night at a local brewery. I had so much fun making this for my new home in my new home state. Stopped by the library on the way home and checked out some North Carolina books too!

Cortg I love it! 8y

Big announcement! I will be moving to the Raleigh/Cary, North Carolina area at the end of October! Any Littens there? What can you tell me about living there?

BookishFeminist Raleigh's nice! I have some friends and family in that area. Wish I had more in the way of advice but you should have a fun time. 😀 8y

Graciouswarriorprincess @BookishFeminist Thank you. My brother lives there and it is just too expensive to continue living in Maryland. 8y

BookishFeminist @Graciouswarriorprincess Maryland is pricy for sure 8y

SharonGoforth My daughter and her family live there, and they love it! (They were originally from Ohio.). I'm hoping to move there in the next few years. 8y

Graciouswarriorprincess @SharonGoforth Thank you. I am going there next weekend to try to find an apartment. 8y

SharonGoforth @Graciouswarriorprincess All the best to you! 8y

Graciouswarriorprincess @SharonGoforth Thank you!👍😀 8y

Kathrin Welcome to the South. All the best!! 8y

Graciouswarriorprincess @Kathrin thanks! Where do you live? 8y

Kathrin @Graciouswarriorprincess Greenville SC. That's around 4 hrs from Raleigh. 8y

Graciouswarriorprincess @Kathrin Almost neighbors!😀 8y

Kathrin @Graciouswarriorprincess That's what I thought! 🤗 8y
