The Haw in Swepsonville, NC

 Since we get time to ourselves while A is in day care we find other things to do to keep busy. 

 For instance I have finished binding 2 quilts, made a quilt top and have almost finished the hand work on my Quite Contrary quilt top.  

I've also finished reading 5 books. 

 This day we went to Swepsonville and found a park on the Haw river. 

 Beautiful day to go for a walk along the river.

My Batman showing off his Bat Cave shirt.

I found a few interesting plants.  

This Clematis for instance. 

 It was going to seed but still pretty.

I had Moonflowers in my yard and this blossom looked like the plant was in the same family.

Chris looked it up and it is a Datura stromonium. 

 I wish we could have seen it in blossom!

These next 2 photos reminded me of faces on the log. 

 Kind of creepy for Halloween, right?

We went to the Saxapawhaw general store and THIS time I made Chris get some "quilty" beer.

I don't really drink beer anymore but I loved this can!  

We saw them the last time we were here and I didn't buy any.

  I picked up a 6 pack this time!

We did go to the brewery there and Chris enjoyed a beer.

Next up is Avery's first birthday.  

I hope you are enjoying our trip to NC so far!
