Wrightville NC - Graduation celebrating begins

 

Staying with the DeMarkeys at a house a block from the beach - and an easy drive to all the activities.  Friday night pre-graduation dinner with the gang.  

Raleigh NC - Search for NCSU

 

Drove out in the direction of the NCSU campus.  Not sure there is a "core" area - it seems to be a very spread out campus on two sides of a busy thoroughfare - with everything else also happening in the same space.  Did run in to one huge newer Catholic Cathedral in the midst of it all as well. 

Raleigh NC - Day Two in an old historic neighborhood

 

Day two I headed off to a historic zone on the edge and surrounded by one huge cemetery.  Raleigh also has the start to a great mural culture going as well.
