I loved seeing all of the beautiful and functional creations of local artists. This isn't just crafty stuff, these artists know their media and use it to make unique pieces. Prices are comfortable and the quality is very high. The gallery is well situated in a fun and vibrant small town close to Raleigh, NC. I had a great time in all kinds of shops and restaurants with great local scenery and history.

It was cold when we're there so we just drive around part of it (it's a huge lake!) after visiting the visitor's center. That was a really interesting center. There were boaters out in the lake...I suspect they were fishing.

This is a paved trail. It covers over 20 miles between Apex and Durham. It was how they transported tobacco leaves to markets. It's a lively peaceful walk and you can do any part of it.
