Quilt Shops and Southport




Sheila visited two quilt shops on Monday morning and then the four of us took a ride down to the harbor town of Southport, near the mouth of the Cape Fear River coming out of Wilmington. The day was beautiful with lots of large clouds and a blue, sunny sky, something we haven't seen much of for about a week!!! I've attached a few shots from Southport as well as Dave (Jim's friend) and Sheila standing out on the dunes at Wrightsville Beach outside of Wilmington. We left early this morning (Tuesday) and headed West towards Asheville, slightly altering our trip (and messing up my tour shirts some more) and skipped Monroe, NC, and headed further West to King's Mountain, NC, located right next to the South Carolina border. Tomorrow we'll get an early start to reach Asheville by mid-morning so we can do some tourist "stuff" and learn more about the area.
