Charlotte, North Carolina
Charlotte- the city I spent the later part of my youth in. I still remember it from my High School Days before Bank of America moved there and the face of the city changed from kind of an old-south to more of an Atlanta knock off...
Raleigh, North Carolina
I spent a great deal of my life in Raleigh since for six years I was a student at North Carolina State University. Again, the town is changing fast. I remember the old days of Hillsborough Street where things still had a kind of grungy gritty feel to them. Now, its all about Starbucks and other chains, but I still remember some of the old places, like Cup-a-Joes which was furnished entierly with thrift store furnature and you could smoke in the whole place (not that thats a good habit ot have of course...). The place is still there but the feel is different. I onnly wish I had discovered photography eaarlier!
OBX: The Outter Banks of North Carolina
My parents own a house on the Outter Banks which has, luckly, not been destroyed by a hurricane. Yet, anyway. So, when I was in High School the family went there often and then at NCSU I went with just friends (which was much more fun!). Unfortunatly, as I move furhter and further away from NC I get to go to our beach home less and less often. Going to the OBX is on of the main things I miss from NC.
