We went on a rainy Saturday night around 9 p.m. The place was packed....with teenagers. Lots of activities for them such as the game room. But most of them were just hanging out at the snack bar.
We bowled several games and lost our patience with the ball return machine. The balls were not returned to us and we could see them spinning around waiting for the return to capture them. Also, the pins would fall over before we bowled our game and we would have to reset them at least two times. The people bowling next to us complained that there were not enough bowling bowls and had to use ones that were not a suitable weight.

I volunteer at a local facility and over time, I have driven by numerous signs pointing to the Bunker Hill Covered Bridge. Always curious but never felt I had the time till yesterday when I was running early.
Decided to take the turn off of US 70 and satisfy my curiosity.
Should have done this a long time ago. Not a staffed facility and pretty much you're on your own but it's very much self explanatory.
Covered Bridges, once common are now rare. Original construction on this one dates back to the 1890's but has a historical link via the Island Ford Road back to Kings Mountain in the 1780's and the battle for King's Mountain.
In autumn, a beautiful walk. If you are a fan of architecture and engineering, you will appreciate the construction of the bridge.
For the nature lover, you will love the setting and the serenity of the area, particulary in the autumn splendor.
Only downside is the crass and immature behavior of some patrons with the graffiti they leave behind.
Such a shame and a desecration of that which is simple but beautiful and historically significant to our heritage.

Murray's mill is a beautiful mill with quite a few machines to look at and in a beautiful setting. Come the first staurday in June and participate in the charity ride (extra fee) to help raise money to keep the place in activity.

I've been to 2 games this month with my family. We enjoyed great seats, fun times, good ball park food and drinks, easy parking and the entry was about what I would have paid to go see a movie. These players are fun to watch!

This art gallery is unique. It contains a few Andy Warhol's, a floor dedicated to Folk Art, an exhibit of a sculpture made of coffee stirrers and some photographic art. It also contains some collections that alluded my knowledge of art. It appeared to be...MoreThank you for your visit.

It is truly a place where you can find just about anything you want. Antiques, collectibles, furniture, dishes, pictures and paintings, books, etc. You name it and they probably have it somewhere. I found pics of 3 lighthouses in Maine that just had to have and luckily it happened to be on sale. The owners are very nice and personable. Will definitely go back when I visit Hickory again.

Had a about an hour to kill one afternoone so being a history nut, I dropped in.
One hour is not enough but in the hour I learned a lot of the history of the hour. My ancentors were some of the original settlers in Mecklenburg County (Charlotte) and this was the next area settled.
Interesting about how the furniture industry started along with the settlement of religious minorities from Central Europe that I only knew a little about.
One hour is not enough so I am planning on a return trip to spend at least a couple of hours here.

Organic and non-organic farm fresh vegetables and fruits abound. You can find handmade soap, cheese, baked goods and a variety of interesting crafts. There is also farm-grown meat and fresh fish. There is a lovely festive atmosphere and the vendors are knowledgeable and friendly. The market is open Saturday morning and Wednesday afternoon. You can also enjoy music, and there is a hotdog stand if you need a snack.

Convenient to Catawba County residents and less than an hour from uptown Charlotte, yet a world away, the 34 acres of Catawba Farms provide the perfect setting for The Vineyard & Winery at Catawba Farms. On the property you'll find our tasting room, vineyard, picnic area, farm animals to interact with, fields to wander, as well as the historic Peacock Inn.
We enjoyed spending a rainy Sunday afternoon at The Vineyard & Winery at Catawba Farms. The wine tasting room has been newly renovated and features two rooms for you to relax in and enjoy a glass of wine. We were very pleased that they offered food selections to enjoy as well. The Vineyard also hosts a bed and breakfast and event space if your looking for a place to host an event. There are several animals on the farm to meet but because of the rain on the day were were there only the geese wanted to greet us as we drove in. Nice staff and owners.

The Harper House and History Center are a wonderful choice for spending a couple of hours in Hickory. The house is absolutely wonderful, especially when decorated for Christmas. The restoration work has been done so beautifully, and the details throughout of Victorian architecture are amazing. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and knowledgeable about the history and design of the house. I highly recommend stopping in.
