Off to the W-S

My mom and two of my awesome nieces who just graduated from high school.  They're off to NC State and College of Charleston in the fall.  Clearly the tall genes are from my brothers-in-law.

This is not even close to everyone in the family.

 

I took the boys to Winston-Salem to visit my mom and go to my nieces' graduation party.  They had a great time hanging out with some of their cousins.  The next day we went exploring behind my mom's house.  SECCA (South Eastern Center for Contemporary Art) has been in the old Hanes mansion for as long as I can remember.  We used to run around back there as kids and we would get kicked out regularly.  The curator lived in the house next door, no one lives there anymore so it's a little abandoned and disheveled looking.  And of course no trip to W-S is complete without hitting the major landmarks.  We went to Dewey's Bakery for some bread and Moravian cookies.  And then over to Krispy Kreme for hot doughnuts and cool hats.
