Brevard/Asheville are great. Charlotte has its perks.

Raleigh/Durham “Triangle” is a vast suburban hellscape. It’s miles upon miles of 6 lane roads, stoplights, strip malls, and office parks. If you turned Microsoft Word into a city, it would be the triangle. It’s one of my least favorite cities I’ve ever been to in my life.

The Maggie Walker House is a often overlooked museum that’s amazing. It’s a really good tour of the house, what life was like then, insight into who she was and why she was important, and the historic significance of Jackson Ward.

Follow it up with a drive out to Evergreen Cemetery to see her grave and check out the very pretty yet overgrown old section of the cemetery

I had shingles, and that drug. I wanted to tell the pharmacist “it’s shingles, not genital herpes!” The drug is used for both and I’m sure the assumption for anyone not middle aged is that it’s not shingles.

Random crime is very rare. In any city most crime is between people who know each other. If you’re not involved in shady drug deals you don’t have much to worry about.
